Be sure to keep the following instructions. Otherwise, it may 
cause serious injury or accident.
 ÝDriving
Obey all traffic laws while driving.
  Relying solely on the navigation system may cause violation of traffic rules 
and regulations, resulting in an accident.
In order to check the vehicle speed, see the speedometer first, 
not the speed on the navigation system.
 The speed on the navigation system may differ from actual vehicle speed.
While driving, refrain from watching the screen.
 An accident may occur by negligence in keeping your eyes forward.
 To manipulate the screen or buttons requiring multiple steps, be sure to 
stop your vehicle.
To use your mobile phone, first stop your vehicle.
 When you use your mobile phone while driving, it may disperse your 
attention, resulting in an accident.
 If necessary, use handsfree (Bluetooth) calling when driving and minimize 
the call time.
Make sure that the volume of the phone is sufficiently low so 
that the external sound is audible.
 When you drive with no external sound present may cause a traffic accident.
 When you drive for a long time with a loud audio volume, it may affect your 
hearing.
For emergency services (e.g. hospital, fire station), do not rely 
solely on the navigation system.
 Some emergency services may not be included in the navigation map. 
Check relevant information in advance to stay prepared for an emergency.
 ÝSystem handling
Do NOT arbitrarily disassemble or modify the system.
  It may cause an accident, fire, or electric shock.
Exercise caution to make sure that no liquid or foreign 
materials enter the system.
 It may cause smoke generation, fire ignition, or system failure.
When the screen is not displayed, the volume is muted, or 
other system failures occur, immediately stop using the 
system.
 Otherwise, it may cause fire, electric shock, or fatal system failure.

alcohol, benzene, thinner), or air freshener. The panel surface may become 
scratched or damaged due to a chemical reaction.
When you install an air freshener on the air conditioner vent, 
the surface may be deformed due to leakage.
