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 your TomTom RIDER. TomTom International B.V. and TomTom,
Inc. cannot accept any liability for the availability and accuracy of GPS.
Use with Care
Use of TomTom RIDER for navigation 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. TomTom RIDER must not be used in these
environments.
Battery
This product uses a Lithium-Ion battery. Do not use it in a humid, wet and/or
corrosive environment. Do not put, store or leave your product in or near a heat
source, in a high temperature location, in strong direct sunlight, in a microwave
oven or in a pressurized container, and do not expose it to temperatures over

to leak acid, become hot, explode or ignite and cause injury and/or damage. Do
not pierce, open or disassemble the battery. If the battery leaks and you come into

attention immediately. For safety reasons, and to prolong the lifetime of the
battery, charging will not occur at low (below 0 C/32 F) or high (over 45 C/113 F)
