OFF or MAX A/C position.
during warm weather, do not drive with the air flow selector in the
OFF position.
• Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.

situations. Safety must be paramount when using mobile communications
equipment to avoid negating these benefits.
