Additional Safety Information

Handbrake interlock

Certain functions (such as viewing of "Video
image" and certain touch panel key opera-
tions) offered by this navigation system could
be dangerous and/or unlawful if used while
driving. To prevent such functions from being
used while the vehicle is in motion, there is an
interlock system that senses when the hand-
brake is set and when the vehicle is moving. If
you attempt to use the functions described
above while driving, they will become disabled
until you stop the vehicle in a safe place, and
apply the handbrake. Please keep the brake
pedal pushed down before releasing the hand-
brake.
WARNING
! LIGHT GREEN LEAD AT POWER CON-
NECTOR IS DESIGNED TO DETECT
PARKED STATUS AND MUST BE CON-
NECTED TO THE POWER SUPPLY SIDE
OF THE HANDBRAKE SWITCH. IMPRO-
PER CONNECTION OR USE OF THIS
LEAD MAY VIOLATE APPLICABLE LAW
AND MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY
OR DAMAGE.
! To avoid the risk of damage and injury and the
potential violation of applicable laws, the navi-
gation system is not for use with a "Video
image" that is visible to the driver.
! In some countries the viewing of "Video
image" on a display inside a vehicle even by
persons other than the driver may be illegal.
Where such regulations apply, they must be
obeyed.
! When applying the handbrake in order to view
"Video image" or to enable other functions of-
fered by the navigation system, park your vehi-
cle in a safe place, and keep the brake pedal
pushed down before releasing the handbrake
if the vehicle is parked on a hill or otherwise
might move when releasing the handbrake.
When you attempt to watch "Video image"
while driving, the warning "Viewing of front
seat video source while driving is strictly
24
Engb
prohibited." will appear on the screen. To
watch "Video image" on this display, stop the
vehicle in a safe place and apply the hand-
brake. Please keep the brake pedal pushed
down before releasing the handbrake.
When using a display
connected to REAR
MONITOR OUTPUT
The video output terminal (REAR MONITOR
OUTPUT) is for connection of a display to en-
able passengers in the rear seats to watch
video images.
WARNING
NEVER install the Rear Display in a location that
enables the driver to watch video images while
driving.
