driving. Use this product prudently. The product is intended to be used only 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 off the car, do not leave your device on the dashboard that is subject to direct sunlight. The 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). The wireless devices might interfere the reception of satellite signals and cause the reception of the signal to be unstable. For better signal reception, it is recommended that you use car antenna (option). v A car holder is needed when using the device in car. It is recommended that you place the device in the appropriate place and avoid the areas as the figure shows. 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.
