Important safety and
legal information
Please read the following information to ensure safe use of your GPS
Navigator Car Kit.
Global Positioning System
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based system that
provides location and timing information around the globe. GPS is
operated and controlled under the sole responsibility of the
Government of the United States of America, which is responsible for
its availability and accuracy. Any changes in GPS availability and
accuracy may impact the operation of your GPS Navigator Car Kit.
Environmental conditions will affect the operation of your GPS
Navigator Car Kit. TomTom B.V. and Palm cannot accept any liability
for the availability and accuracy of GPS.
Use With Care
Use of the GPS Navigator Car Kit does not by any means substitute
for the need to drive with due care and attention.
IMPORTANT Do not mount the GPS Navigator Car Kit where the
driver’s field of vision is obscured or where airbags may deploy, and
do not place it on the dashboard without securing it reliably. Do not
mount the unit or route the cables in such a way as to interfere with
control of the vehicle. Failure to follow these guidelines could result
in an accident or collision resulting in serious injury or death.
Drive safely using information from street signs and landmarks in
addition to the GPS Navigator Car Kit. Do not become distracted by
the GPS Navigator Car Kit while operating the vehicle. Use voice
prompts to minimize the need to look at the display. Do not input
destinations or access other functions that take time to complete
unless the vehicle is safely stopped. Make all settings before
departing or pull off the road in a safe and legal manner if changes
need to be made.
IMPORTANT Use the GPS Navigator Car Kit only as an aid to
navigation. It is not designed for any use requiring precise
measurements. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by
the government of the United States of America and is subject to
changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of this
GPS equipment.
NOTICE TO DRIVERS When using this product you must obey your
local vehicle codes. Some vehicle codes restrict any object or
material from being placed, displayed, installed, affixed, or applied
upon the windshield or side or rear windows. Where such codes
exist, when using this product, the suction cup mount pad should be
used instead of attaching the mount directly to the vehicle windshield
or side or rear windows. Palm is not responsible for any damages,
fines, or penalties that may result from disregarding this notice.
Aircraft and Hospitals
Use of devices with an antenna is prohibited on most aircraft, in many
hospitals, and in many other locations. The GPS Navigator Car Kit
must not be used in these environments.
Heat-Reflective Shields
Some newer-model vehicles may have a heat-reflective shield
embedded in the windshield, which may prevent proper GPS signal
reception if the GPS Navigator Car Kit is placed behind the
windshield. To enable proper reception:
• Place the GPS Navigator Car Kit in a different position, or
• Place the GPS Navigator Car Kit behind the rearview mirror,
where many vehicles have an opening in the heat reflective
shield, as indicated by a black outline.
