{CAUTION:
Avoid looking too long or too often at the moving
map on the navigation screen. This could cause a
crash and you or others can be injured or killed.

whenever possible.Use the navigation system to:
Plan a route.
Select a destination using various methods and
choices.
Follow turn-by-turn route and map guidance with
voice prompts, only if permitted by traffic laws,
controls, and conditions.
You should always be alert and obey traffic and roadway
laws and instructions, regardless of the guidance from
the navigation system. Because the navigation
system uses street map information that does not
include all traffic restrictions or the latest road changes,
it may suggest using a road that is now closed for
construction or a turn that is prohibited by signs at the
intersection. Because the system uses limited
information, you must always evaluate whether following
the system’s directions is safe and legal for the
current conditions.
