The GPS antenna is located in the dashboard. Metallic front or side window tinting can seriously degrade or obstruct GPS recept ion.
Signal noise from devices such as radar detectors, vehicle track ing devices, remote starters, and additional amplifiers can disrupt the navigation system. If you

Important Safety Information
Avoid focusing on the screen or manually operating the system controls while driving.
Enter information before you begin driving or when stopped. As you drive, listen to the audible instructions and use voice commands when possible. Pull to the
side of the road if you need more time to look at the screen or operate the controls.
Route guidance may conflict with street closures, road construction, detours, and out-of-date map data.
The system itself may also have limitations. Verify route informa tion by carefully observing roads, signs, and signals. Always use your own judgement and obey
traffic laws.
