\335Warning
\225Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control
that may lead to an accident, severe bodily injury, or death.
The driver's primary responsibility is the safe and legal
operation of the vehicle, and the use of any vehicle systems,
including the touch screen and steering wheel controls, which
take the driver's eyes, attention, and focus away from the safe
operation of the vehicle, or which are not permissible by law,
should never be used during the operation of the vehicle.
\225Some functions may not be active while driving to ensure
safety. Those functions run only when the vehicle is stationary.
In order to use them, first stop the vehicle.
\225When the screen is not displayed, the volume is muted, or
other system failures occur, immediately stop using the
system. When you use the faulty system continuously, it may
cause fire, electric shock, or fatal system failure.
\334Caution
\225The system can be turned on even when the ignition switch is
in “ACC” or “ON.” However, when you use the system without
turning on the vehicle for a long time, it may cause battery
discharge. To use the system for a long time, be sure to turn
on the vehicle.
\225When you use the system with the vehicle turned off, the
battery warning message appears. The warning message
