Removing original equipment, adding accessories or modifying your vehicle could affect the vehicle's safety or make it illegal to operate in some jurisdictions. Follow all product instructions and all instructions in your vehicle owner's manual regarding accessories or modifications. Consult your country's and/or state's laws regarding operation of a vehicle with any accessories or modifications. It is your sole responsibility to place, secure and use your Navman in a manner that will not cause accidents, personal injury or property damage. Always observe safe driving practices. Do not mount your Navman in a way that may interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle, the deployment of air bags or other safety equipment. Do not operate your Navman while driving. Before you use your Navman for the first time, familiarize yourself with your device and its operation. On main roads, the distance to an exit calculated by the Navman may be further than the distance shown on road signs. Road signs show the distance to the start of an exit while the Navman shows the distance to the next intersection, i.e., the end of the exit ramp or road. To prepare to exit a road, always follow distance information on road signs. Do not handle the Navman while it is hot. Let the product cool, out of direct sunlight. Do not expose the Navman to direct sunlight in an unattended vehicle for prolonged periods. Overheating may damage the unit. To discourage theft, do not leave your Navman, mounting bracket or any cables in plain view in an unattended vehicle. 2 F15/F25 | Important safety information Internal battery-specific safety information The Navman contains a non-replaceable internal lithium-ion polymer battery. The battery may burst or explode if mishandled, releasing hazardous chemicals. To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush or puncture the battery. Recycle or dispose of the battery safely and properly according to local laws and regulations. Do not dispose of the battery in fire or water. Only use the correct in-vehicle charger supplied by Navman to charge the Navman internal battery. Only use the Navman internal battery with the Navman unit. The Navman battery will stop charging when the ambient temperature is less than 0ºC (32ºF) or more than 45ºC (113ºF). Warning Notice to Drivers in California and Minnesota State law prohibits drivers in California and Minnesota from mounting objects on their windshields while driving. Other Navman mounting options are recommended and an alternative mounting option is included in this box. Navman does not take any responsibility for any fines, penalties, or damages that may be incurred as a result of disregarding this notice. See California Vehicle Code Section 26708(a); Minnesota Statutes 2005, Section 169.71. Failure to adhere to these warnings and cautions may lead to death, serious injury or property damage. Navman disclaims all liability for installation or use of the Navman that causes or contributes to death, injury or property damage or that violates any law. 3 F15/F25 | Important safety information Contents Important safety information...................................................................................................................2 Welcome................................................................................................................................................6 Getting to know your Navman ................................................................................................................7 How do I get started?.............................................................................................................................8 How do I turn my Navman on for the first time?
