A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD TO OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION. CAUTION When showing turn-by-turn navigation data, a GPS unit will show the shortest, most direct route to the destination. There are times when it may give directions, such as a U-turn, that may be prohibited in some locations. While navigating, a driver is responsible for noting all traffic signs and obeying all local traffic laws. When following turn-by-turn directions, a driver must take advantage of all available navigation tools, and must visually check to make sure a clear, safe path to the next destination is available. WARNING: Do not attempt to configure, adjust or enter information into this unit while driving. Driver assumes all responsibility for using safe and prudent driving and navigation methods. When a GPS unit is used in a vehicle, the vehicle operator is solely responsible for operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Vehicle operators must maintain full surveillance of all pertinent driving conditions at all times. An accident or collision resulting in damage to property, personal injury or death could occur if the operator of a GPS-equipped vehicle fails to pay full attention to travel conditions and vehicle operation while the vehicle is in motion. Do not attempt to configure, adjust or enter information into your GPS unit while driving. 3 External Connections Section 1 includes information on external connections.
