Important safety information
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING PRODUCT IN VEHICLE
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety
messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.

injury.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury.
CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not

Removing original equipment, adding accessories or modifying your vehicle could affect the vehicle’s safety or make it illegal to operate
in some jurisdictions.
Follow all product instructions and all instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual regarding accessories or modifications.
Consult your country’s and/or state’s laws regarding operation of a vehicle with any accessories or modifications.
It is your sole responsibility to place, secure and use your Mio in a manner that will not cause accidents, personal injury or property
damage. Always observe safe driving practices.
Do not mount your Mio in a way that may interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle, the deployment of air bags or other safety
equipment.
Do not operate your Mio while driving.
Before you use your Mio for the first time, familiarize yourself with your device and its operation.
On main roads, the distance to an exit calculated by the Mio may be further than the distance shown on road signs. Road signs show the
distance to the start of an exit while the Mio shows the distance to the next intersection, i.e., the end of the exit ramp or road. To prepare
to exit a road, always follow distance information on road signs.
The use of information regarding safety or speed camera locations may be subject to local laws in the country of use. You are
responsible for checking that you can legally use the information in your country or in the country where the information will be used.
Do not handle the Mio while it is hot. Let the product cool, out of direct sunlight.
At full power, prolonged listening to the Mio via headphones or earphones can damage the ear of the user.
Do not expose the Mio to direct sunlight in an unattended vehicle for prolonged periods. Overheating may damage the unit.
To discourage theft, do not leave the Mio, mounting bracket or any cables in plain view in an
unattended vehicle.
Home Charger-specific safety information
To charge your Mio from the mains power, use the home charger (Model: PSAA05R-050; Input: 100-240V AC 50-60Hz; Output: 5V DC
1A Max) supplied by Mio as an accessory (may be sold separately). Using other home chargers with your Mio could result in serious
injury or property damage.
Never use the charger if the plug or cord are damaged.
Do not expose the charger to moisture or water. Do not use the charger in a high moisture environment. Exposure to water may cause
electrical sparks or fires.
Never touch the charger when your hands or feet are wet.
Allow adequate ventilation around the charger when using it to operate your Mio or charge the Mio internal battery. Do not cover the
charger with paper or other objects that will reduce ventilation. Do not use the charger while it is inside a carrying case or
other container.
Ensure that the charger is connected to a power source with the correct fitting and voltage requirements. The voltage requirements can
be found on the home charger casing and/or packaging.
Do not attempt to service the charger as this could result in personal injury. Replace the charger if it is damaged or exposed to
excess moisture.
