with navigation system) CAUTION● The glass screen on the liquid crystal display
may break if it is hit with a hard or sharp
object. If the glass breaks, do not touch the
liquid crystalline material, which contains a
small amount of mercury. In case of contact
with skin, wash immediately with soap and
water.
● To clean the display, use a soft, dry cloth. If
additional cleaning is necessary, use a small
amount of neutral detergent with a soft
cloth. Never use a rough cloth, alcohol, ben-
zine, thinner or any kind of solvent or paper
towel with a chemical cleaning agent. They
will scratch or deteriorate the panel.
● Do not splash any liquid such as water or car
fragrance on the display. Contact with liquid
will cause the system to malfunction. To ensure safe driving, some functions cannot
be operated while driving.
The on-screen functions that are not available
while driving will be “grayed out” or muted.
Park the vehicle in a safe location and then
operate the navigation system.
WARNING● ALWAYS give your full attention to driving.
● Avoid using vehicle features that could dis-
tract you. If distracted, you could lose con-
trol of your vehicle and cause an accident.
