Important Safety Notices and Warnings
Global Positioning System
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based system that provides location and
timing information around the globe. GPS is operated and controlled under the sole
responsibility of the Government of the United States of America, which is responsible for its
availability and accuracy. Any changes in GPS availability and accuracy, or in environmental
conditions, may impact the operation of this device. TomTom does not accept any liability for
the availability and accuracy of GPS.
Use with care
Use of TomTom products while driving still means that you need to drive with due care and
attention.
Aircraft and hospitals
Use of devices with an antenna is prohibited on most aircraft, in many hospitals and in many
other locations. This device must not be used in these environments.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING DRIVING IN CALIFORNIA AND MINNESOTA
California Vehicle Code Section 26708 "Material Obstructing or Reducing Driver's View"
permits mounting of a navigation device on the windshield as follows: "A portable Global
Positioning System (GPS), which may be mounted in a seven-inch square in the lower corner
of the windshield farthest removed from the driver or in a five-inch square in the lower corner
of the windshield nearest to the driver and outside of an airbag deployment zone, if the
system is used only for door-to-door navigation while the motor vehicle is being operated."
Drivers in California should not use a suction mount on their side or rear windows.
Note: This section of the California Vehicle Code applies to anyone driving in California, not
just California residents.
Minnesota State Legislature Statutes Section 169.71, subdivision 1, section 2 provides that
"A person shall not drive or operate with any objects suspended between the driver and the
windshield other than sun visors and rearview mirrors and electronic toll collection devices."
Note: this Minnesota Stature applies to anyone driving in Minnesota, not just Minnesota
residents.
TomTom Inc. bears no responsibility for any fines, penalties or damage that may be incurred
by disregarding this notice. While driving in any state with windshield mounting restrictions,
TomTom recommends the use of the supplied Adhesive Mounting Disk or its Alternative
Mounting Kit, which includes multiple options for mounting TomTom devices on the
dashboard and the air vents. See tomtom.com for more information about these mounting
options.
