PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT INFORMATION, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BE-
FORE USING THIS PRODUCT.
This product is intended to safely provide turn by turn instruction to get you to a
desired destination. Please read the following precautions to ensure that you use
your navigation system correctly.
H
This product is not a substitute for your personal judgment. Any route
suggestions made by the navigation system may never supersede any
local traffic regulations or your personal judgment and/or knowledge of
safe driving practices. Do not follow route suggestions if the navigation
system instructs you to perform an unsafe or illegal maneuver, places you
in an unsafe situation, or routes you into an area which you consider un-
safe.
H
Glance at the monitor screen only when necessary and safe to do so. If
prolonged viewing of the screen is necessary, pull over in a safe and legal
manner and location.
H
Do not input destinations, change settings, or access any functions
requiring a prolonged view of the monitor and/or remote control while you
are driving. Pull over in a safe and legal manner and location before at-
tempting to access the system.
H
Do not use the navigation system to route you to emergency services.
Not all locations of emergency service providers such as police and fire
stations, hospitals, and clinics are contained in the database. Please use
your own judgment and your ability to ask for directions in these situa-
tions.
H
The map database contained within the media (CD ROM) in which it is
stored is the most recent map data available at the time of production.
Because of changes in streets and neighbourhoods, there may be situa-
tions where the navigation system may not be able to route you to your
desired destination. In these cases, use your own personal judgment.
H
The map database is designed to provide you with route suggestions, it
does not take account the relative safety of a suggested route, or of factors
which may affect the time required to reach your destination. The database
does not reflect road closures or construction, road characteristics (i.e.
type of road surface, slope or grade, weight or height restrictions, etc.),
traffic congestion, weather conditions, or any other factors which may
affect the safety or timing of your driving experience. Use your personal
judgment if the navigation system is unable to provide you with an alter-
nate route.
