USB storage device functions
WARNING
The driver must not attempt to operate or watch the screen
while the vehicle is in motion. Doing so will distract attention
from driving and the road, and could lead to an accident.
NOTE
• Using the Audio and Visual System with the engine stopped could lower the
battery's electricity level. If the initial charge level is too low, the engine may
not start the next time. It is recommended that the system be used only when
the engine is running expect when the vehicle is parked in a garage or other
enclosed area.
• In the interest of safety, the use of some functions may be unavailable while
driving. The buttons for a touch screen that cannot be used are displayed
greyed out.
• Liquid-crystal displays may be difficult to read when wearing polarized glasses.
