Navigation features
Navigation features included in the system are intended to provide detailed instructions to
get you to a desired destination. Ensure that all persons using this system carefully read and
follow all instructions on safety information.
Distraction hazard
Some navigation features may require manual (non-verbal) setup. Attempting to perform
such setup or inputting data while driving can seriously distract your attention and could
cause an accident. Stop the vehicle in a safe and legal manner before attempting these
operations.
Let your judgment prevail
Any navigation features are provided only as an aid. Make your driving decisions based on
your observations of local conditions and existing traffic regulations. Any such feature is not
a substitute for your personal judgment. Any route suggestions made by this system should
never replace any local traffic regulations or your personal judgment or knowledge of safe
driving practices.
Route safety
Do not follow the route suggestions if doing so would result in an unsafe or illegal maneuver,
if you would be placed in an unsafe situation, or if you would be directed into an area that
you consider unsafe. The driver is ultimately responsible for the safe operation of the vehicle
and must evaluate whether it is safe to follow the suggested directions.
Potential map inaccuracy
Maps used by this system may be inaccurate because of changes in roads, traffic controls
or driving conditions. Always use good judgment and common sense when following the
suggested routes.
Emergency services
Do not rely on any navigation features included in the system to direct you to emergency
services. Ask local authorities or an emergency services operator for these locations. Not all
emergency services such as police, fire stations, hospitals and clinics are contained in the
map database for navigation features.
Use of speech recognition functions
Speech recognition software is inherently a statistical process which is subject to errors. It is
your responsibility to monitor any speech recognition functions included in the system and
address any errors.
