1 General
MDAS installation requires wiring electric signals of vehicles. Please contact your local
distributor or authorized installers to install. Movon will hold no liability of any damage
occurred during installation proceeded by users, or unauthorized installers.
MDAS is developed to give only warnings to drivers. The final decision to maneuver or
control shall be made by drivers themselves. Furthermore, MDAS is not capable to
provide 100% detection rate of lane markings, vehicles, and MDAS recognition
performance can be fluctuated due to road conditions, inclement weather, poor
installation, etc. Please ensure that keep eyes forward while driving rather than only
relying on MDAS.
