destination such as a hospital or a police station.
● Your route may sometimes include roads that are not open to vehicles or are
closed due to traffic regulations. Please comply with the local traffic
regulations.

the time spent viewing the monitor screen and listening to the voice guidance

of the vehicle and may cause an accident. Always stop the vehicle in a safe
location and use the parking brake before operating the system.
