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 con-
trolled 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 device. TomTom does not accept any liability for
the availability and accuracy of GPS.
Use with Care
Use of a TomTom device 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 hospi-
tals and in many other locations. A TomTom device must not be used in these
environments.
Battery
This product uses a Lithium-Polymer 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 tem-
peratures over 60 C (140 F). Failure to follow these guidelines may cause the
Lithium-Polymer battery 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 contact with the leaked fluids, rinse thor-
oughly with water and seek medical 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) temperatures.
Temperatures: Standard operation: -10 C (14 F) to +55 C (131 F); short period
storage: -20 C (-4 F) to + 60 C (140 F); long period storage: -20 C (-4 F) to
+25 C (77 F).
Caution: risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Do not remove or attempt to remove the non-user-replaceable battery. If you
have a problem with the battery, please contact TomTom customer support.
