Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, crash and injury.
We strongly recommend that you use
extreme caution when using any device that
may take your focus off the road. Your
primary responsibility is the safe operation
of your vehicle. We recommend against the
use of any handheld device while driving and
encourage the use of voice-operated
systems when possible. Make sure you are
aware of all applicable local laws that may
affect the use of electronic devices while
driving. For safety reasons, do not connect or
adjust the settings on your portable
music player while your vehicle is moving. WARNINGS
Store the portable music player in a
secure location, such as the center
console or the glove box, when your vehicle
is moving. Hard objects may become
projectiles in a crash or sudden stop, which
may increase the risk of serious injury. The
audio extension cable must be long enough
to allow the portable music player to be
safely stored while your vehicle is moving. 420
