Prohibited uses
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, Minnesota and Other States
California Vehicle Code Section 26708 which applies to those driving within the State of California
restricts the mounting of a navigation device on the windshield to 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 mount the device on their side or rear windows.
Minnesota State Legislature Statutes Section 169.71, subdivision 1, section 2 restrict any person
driving within the State of Minnesota from driving with a device suspended between the driver and
the windshield.
Many other states have enacted laws which restrict the placement of any object or material on the
windshield or side or rear window that obstructs a driver's clear view of the road. It is incumbent
upon the driver to be aware of all applicable laws and to place the device in such a manner that will
not interfere with his/her driving.
TomTom, Inc. bears no responsibility for and hereby disclaims all liability for any fines, penalties or
damage incurred by a driver for violations of the law. While driving in any state with windshield
mounting restrictions, TomTom recommends using the supplied Adhesive Mounting Disk or
purchasing an alternative mounting system (e.g. dashboard or air vents). See tomtom.com for more
information about these mounting options.
