Precautions

Very important information. Please read this section carefully before using this product.

This product is intended to provide turn-by-turn instructions to safely guide you to your desired

destination. Please make sure that all persons using this navigation software carefully read these

precautions and the operating instructions in the User's Guide.

Nextar cannot accept any responsibility whatsoever for accidents resulting from failure to observe

these precautions.

Your personal judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take

precedence over instructions produced by the software.

 This product is not a substitute for your driving technique, driving knowledge or especially

your personal judgment. Route suggestions made by this navigation system should never

supersede any traffic regulations, your personal judgment, or your knowledge of safe driving

practices. If you feel that a route suggestion made by the software instructs you to perform an

unsafe or illegal maneuver, places you in an unsafe situation, or routes you into an area that

you consider unsafe, do not follow the instructions. Your personal judgment, traffic regulations,

and common sense must always take precedence over instructions produced by the software.

 When your vehicle is moving, keep your eyes on the road instead of looking at the screen. If

you need to look at the screen for a prolonged time, always park the car in a safe manner and

in accordance with all traffic regulations.

 Do not select or input destinations, change settings or otherwise manually operate this

software unless you have parked your car in a safe manner, observing all traffic regulations.

 If you are responding to an emergency, it may not be prudent to rely on this system unless

you have no other means to obtain accurate directions. The database does not include all of

the facilities and streets necessary for emergency response, and the system’s maps may not

reflect recent changes in roads, traffic controls and driving conditions. Use your own judgment

in these situations.

 The database utilized by this software is the most accurate and up-to-date database available.

Because of road closures, construction, weather, new roads and other conditions, the

database might not contain accurate information regarding all streets and locations. If so, the

system might not be able to correctly guide you on your route or may inaccurately estimate

the time needed to reach your destination. Please use your judgment in these cases.

Renewing your subscription to the database will aid in keeping it up-to-date.

 There are situations when the navigation system will incorrectly display the vehicle’s position

on the map. Usually this situation will correct itself automatically. Use your own judgment at all

times. If you need to reset the position, pull over in a safe manner observing all traffic

regulations.

responsible for problems resulting from failure to observe the precautions, warnings, and

 The driver must not manually operate the software while driving the vehicle. This may lead to

traffic accidents. If the driver is to operate the software with the controls, the driver must pull

over in a safe manner observing all traffic regulations.

 When your vehicle is moving, keep your eyes on the road instead of looking at the screen.

Listen to the voice prompts for guidance instructions. If you wish to look at the display, pull

over in a safe manner observing all traffic regulations.

 Immediately stop using the software if a problem arises. Problems might include no sound or

display errors.

 Always comply with all traffic regulations.

 Regardless of the guidance instructions, do not enter roads on which your type of vehicle is

prohibited or which appear unsafe. Always observe signs.

 Keep the volume low enough so that you can hear outside sounds.

over in a safe manner observing all traffic regulations.
