\334 Warning
Driving while distracted can result
in a loss of vehicle control that may
lead to an accident, severe bodily
injury, or death. The driver′s primary
responsibility is the safe and legal
operation of the vehicle, and the use
of any vehicle systems, including
the touch screen and steering wheel
controls, which take the driver′s eyes,
attention, and focus away from the safe
operation of the vehicle, or which are
not permissible by law, should never be
used during the operation of the vehicle.
Park your vehicle in a safe location
before connecting any Bluetooth
devices. Distracted driving can cause
a traffic accident and lead to personal
injury or death.
Never dial a phone number by entering
it manually or pick up your mobile
phone while driving. Use of a mobile
phone may distract your attention,
making it difficult to recognize external
conditions and reducing the ability to
cope with unexpected situations, which
may lead to an accident.
