Before using the Audio and Visual system Precautions when using the system WARNING READ THIS MANUAL FIRST Read this supplement carefully before using the audio and visual system. We are not liable for accidents or other problems resulting from failure to follow the instructions in this supplement. AVOID OPERATING THE AUDIO AND VISUAL system WHILE DRIVING You should stop the vehicle in a safe place before operating the audio and visual system. For safety’s sake, some of the audio and visual system’s functions cannot be used unless the vehicle is stationary. If you stare at the display with too much enthusiasm or operate the switches of the system while in driving, the navigation system could cause your attention to be distracted from the current traffic conditions. Please be sure to input in the system as much information as possible before departure. And also please be sure to bring the vehicle to a stop in a safe place if you need to input information. The buttons for a touch screen that cannot be used are displayed greyed out. Operating the navigation system while in driving could cause your attention to be distracted from the current traffic conditions. And in consequence, this could result in a severe or fatal accident. Always follow the descriptions of all operations and the instructions for safety given in this manual. 106 Audio and Visual LOOK AT THE AUDIO AND VISUAL SCREEN ONLY WHEN NECESSARY When you need to look at the audio and visual screen, do so for the shortest time possible. Looking away from the road for too long could lead to an accident. KEEP THE VOLUME LOW ENOUGH FOR YOU TO HEAR OUTSIDE SOUNDS Keep the system’s volume level low enough for you to be able to hear outside sounds while driving. To do otherwise may mean that you are unable to react appropriately to traffic conditions thus resulting in an accident.
