Precautions and Notices 
  For your own safety, do not operate the controls of the product while 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). 
  Other wireless devices in the vehicle might interfere with the reception of 
satellite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
