operate correctly.
•
If an electrical equipment that generates a strong
electrical noise is used near this unit, the screen may
be disturbed and noise may be generated. In this case,

3. Warnings and Safety information
Clarion Mobile Map is a navigation system that helps you find your way to your destination with its GPS
receiver. Clarion Mobile Map does not transmit your GPS position; others cannot track you.
It is important that you look at the display only when it is safe to do so. If you are the driver of the vehicle,
we recommend that you operate Clarion Mobile Map before you start your journey. Plan the route before
your departure and stop if you need to change something in the route.
Clarion Mobile Map has a Safety Mode: if you turn on Safety Mode, you cannot change anything in Clarion
MobileMapwhilethevehicleismovingataspeedof10km/h(6mph)orhigher.Unlessonlypassengers
operate Clarion Mobile Map, we strongly encourage you to turn on Safety Mode.
You must obey the traffic signs and follow the road geometry. If you deviate from the route that Clarion
Mobile Map recommended, Clarion Mobile Map changes the instructions accordingly.
Never place any part of the navigation system where it obstructs the driver's view, where it is in the
deployment zone of an airbag or where it might cause injuries in an accident.
For more information, consult the End User License Agreement (page 73).

4.3.3LaneinformationandSignposts
When navigating on multilane roads, it is important to take the appropriate lane in order to follow the
recommended route. If lane information is available in the map data, Clarion Mobile Map displays the lanes
and their directions using small arrows either at the bottom or at the top of the map (the position of these
arrows can be modified in Map Screen settings). Arrows in yellow represent the lanes you need to take.
Where there is additional information available, signposts substitute arrows. Signposts are always displayed
at the top of the map. The color and style of the signposts are similar to the real ones you can see above
road or by the roadside. They show the available destinations and the number of the road the lane leads to.
All signposts look similar when cruising (when there is no recommended route). When navigating a route, only
that signpost is displayed in vivid colors that points to the lane(s) to be taken; all others are darkened out.
