>>> WARRANTY
24-month warranty
The company United Navigation GmbH,
Marco-Polo-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern,
Germany, provides a world-wide,
24-month warranty (battery: 6 months)
for BECKER units, beginning on the day
of delivery to the final customer (buyer).
Within the framework of the warranty,
functional defects will be eliminated
free-of-charge, provided that these can
be shown to be the result of material or
manufacturing faults and this shall be ef-
fected either by elimination of the fault or
by provision of a new unit, at the discre-
tion of the manufacturer. Warranty
claims must be registered by the buyer
immediately after defects are discovered
and must be accompanied by the initial
buyer’s purchase contract.
The warranty expires after 24 months
(battery: 6 months); neither warranty
claims nor fulfilment shall effect an ex-
tension of the warranty period.
Faults resulting from improper handling,
incorrect installation of the unit, improper
noise suppression of the vehicle, static
charge or mechanical damage are exclud-
ed from the warranty.
The warranty is invalidated in the case of
repairs or tampering on the part of the
buyer or unauthorised third parties.
Repairs may only be performed by per-
sons and service centres expressly au-
thorised by the manufacturer or by the
manufacturer himself.
This warranty does not affect or
restrict the legal warranty rights of
the buyer.

¤Safety instructions
• Use of the device is only permitted if the traffic conditions are suitable and you are absolutely sure that its use presents
no risk, distraction or inconvenience to you, your passengers or other road users.
Traffic laws and regulations will apply in each and every case. Destinations may only be entered when the vehicle is
stationary.
• The navigation system is merely an aid, data/information may in select cases be incorrect. The driver must decide in each
situation by him- or herself if he or she will follow the directions. No liability will be assumed for incorrect directions
provided by the navigation system. Imprecise or incorrect directions may be provided due to changing traffic patterns or
deviations in data. Therefore, you must always observe the actual road signs and traffic regulations. In particular, the
navigation system must not be used as an orientation aid at times of poor visibility.
• The device must only be used for its intended purpose. The volume of the navigation system should be adjusted so that
noises external to the vehicle are still well audible.
• Turn the unit off immediately if a defect occurs (e.g. emission of smoke or odors).
• For reasons of safety and security, the device must only be opened by a professional. In case of needed repair please
consult your dealer.
• Navigation devices from Becker could contain magnets. Do not bring them near magnetic data carriers (notebooks) or

bodies.
