7-40 Infotainment System
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, always
evaluate whether following the
system's directions is safe and
legal for the current conditions.

system and the available screen
buttons on the navigation screen to
operate the system. SeeOverview
