alone, no matter how advanced, can never
replace your own judgment. See the Navigation
System manual for some tips to help you
reduce distractions while driving.

Entertainment (RSE) system. The RSE system

headphones and repairs will not be covered by
your warranty. Keep the headphones stored
in a cool, dry place.

door located on the left side of the headphone
earpiece.
2. Replace the two AAA batteries in the
compartment. Make sure that they are

period of time, remove the batteries and keep them
in a cool, dry place.
