Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous
situations could result in an accident or collision resulting
in death or serious injury.
When installing your mobile phone in a vehicle, place
the unit securely so it does not obstruct the driver’s view
of the road or interfere with vehicle operating controls,
such as the steering wheel, foot pedals, or transmission
levers. Do not place in front of or above any airbag. (See
diagram.)
When navigating, carefully compare information
displayed on your mobile phone to all available navigation
sources, including information from street signs, visual
sightings, and maps. For safety, always resolve any
discrepancies or questions before continuing navigation
and defer to posted road signs.
•
•
Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner. Do not
become distracted by your mobile phone while driving,
and always be fully aware of all driving conditions.
Minimize the amount of time spent viewing your mobile
phone’s screen while driving and use voice prompts when
possible. Do not input destinations, change settings, or
access any functions requiring prolonged use of your
mobile phone’s controls while driving. Pull over in a safe
and legal manner before attempting such operations.
The navigation software is designed to provide route
suggestions. It is not designed to replace the need for
driver attentiveness regarding road closures or road
conditions, trafc congestion, weather conditions, or other
factors that may affect safety while driving.
