Precautions and Notices
 For your own safety, do not operate the controls of the product while driving.
 Use this product carefully. The product is intended for use solely as a
navigation aid. It is not for precise measurement of direction, distance,
location or topography.
 The calculated route is for reference only. It is the user’s responsibility to
follow the traffic signs and local regulations along the roads.
 When you get out of the vehicle, do not leave your N.I.C.E. 430 on the
dashboard subjected to direct sunlight. Overheating of the battery can cause
malfunction and/or danger.
 GPS is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible
for the performance of GPS. Any change to the GPS system can affect the
accuracy of all GPS equipments.
 GPS satellite signals cannot pass through solid materials (except glass). When
you are inside a tunnel or building, GPS positioning is not available.
 A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals is needed to determine current GPS
position. Signal reception can be affected by situations such as bad weather or
dense overhead obstacles (e.g. trees and tall buildings).
 Other wireless devices in the vehicle might interfere with the reception of
satellite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
v

 A mounting bracket is needed when using the device in the vehicle. Be sure
that you place the device in an appropriate place, so as not to obstruct the
driver’s view, or deployment of airbags.
Do not mount where the driver’s
field of vision is blocked.
Do not place unsecured
on the dashboard.
Do not mount in front of
airbag panels.
Do not mount in front of an
airbag field of deployment.
