Precautions for safety
WARNING:
Don t use a cellular phone when you are
driving. You must stop at a safe place to use
a cellular phone.
The use of the navigation radio by no means
relieves the driver of his/her responsibilities.
The highway code must always be observed.
Always observe the current traffic situation.
The applicable traffic regulations and the
prevailing traffic situation always take
precedence over the instructions issued by
the navigation system if they contradict one
another.
For traffic safety reasons, use the navigation
system menus only before starting a journey
or when the vehicle is stationary.
In certain areas, one-way streets, turn-
off, and entry prohibitions (e.g. pedestrian
zones), the navigation system will give a
warning. Pay particular attention to these
kind of cases.
The navigation system does not take the
relative safety of the suggested routes into
consideration.
Road blocks, building sites, height or weight
restrictions, traffic or weather conditions
or other influences which affect the route
safety or travel time are not taken into
consideration for the suggested routes. Use
your own discretion in order to decide on the
suitability of the suggested routes.
The current legal road traffic speed limit
always takes priority over the values saved
on the data. It is impossible to provide an
assurance that the speed values of the
navigation system will always match those
of the current traffic regulations in every
situation.
Do not rely exclusively on the navigation
system when attempting to locate an
emergency service (hospital, fire service etc.).
It cannot be guaranteed that all available
emergency services in your vicinity are saved
in the database. Use your own discretion and
abilities to secure help in such situations.
