PRECAUTIONS & WARNINGS

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT

This product is intended to provide accurate turn-by-turn directions that will help you quickly reach your desired destination. We therefore, recommend that you read and follow all information and instructions in this Owner’s Manual for the best performance and satisfaction of your MN312S/MN312D.



Your MN312S/MN312D IS NOT a substitute for personal judgment. The route suggestions should never supersede any local traffic regulation, personal judgment or knowledge of safe driving practices. Before making any maneuvers (for example, a U-turn or a left turn) suggested by the

MN312S/MN312D system, please be sure that such a maneuver can be completed legally and safely. Do not follow route suggestions that could put you or your vehicle in a potentially unsafe or illegal circumstance.



You should not depend on MN312S/MN312D to locate emergency services

(such as police, fire stations, hospitals and clinics). The database may not include all emergency service providers. It is the best to call your local police department and ask for directions in these situations.



Set the unit volume at a level that will allow you to hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles.



Avoid placing cell phones or wireless transceiver devices near the GPS antenna (located in the rear of the unit) as their signals may weaken or interfere with the GPS satellite signal being received by your

MN312S/MN312D, causing it to perform poorly.



The MN312S/MN312D should not be programmed while driving. The driver can only program the unit while the vehicle is parked in a safe location.
