◦ Do not mount where the driver’s field of vision is blocked.
◦ Do not mount in front of an airbag field of deployment.
• The windscreen mount may not stay attached to the windscreen in all circumstances. Do not place the mount where it will become a distraction if the mount should become detached. Keep your windscreen clean to help ensure that the mount stays on the windscreen.
• Always use your best judgement and operate the vehicle in a safe manner.
Do not become distracted by the device while driving and always be fully aware of all driving conditions.
Minimise the amount of time spent viewing the device screen while driving and use voice prompts when possible.

Garmin-Asus A10 Quick Start Manual
navigation warnings
• When navigating, carefully compare information displayed on the device to all available navigation sources, including road signs, road closures, road conditions, traffic congestion, weather conditions and other factors that may affect safety while driving. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation and defer to posted road signs and road conditions.
• The device is designed to provide route suggestions. It is not a replacement for driver attentiveness and good judgement. Do not follow route suggestions if they suggest an unsafe or illegal manoeuvre, or would place the vehicle in an unsafe situation.
Battery warnings
If these guidelines are not followed, the internal lithium‑ion battery may experience a shortened life span or may present a risk of damage to the GPS device, fire, chemical burn, electrolyte leak and/or injury.
• Do not leave the device exposed to a heat source or in a high temperature
Garmin-Asus A10 Quick Start Manual location, such as in the sun in an unattended vehicle. To prevent damage, remove the device from the vehicle or store it out of direct sunlight, such as in the glove box.

• Do not remove or attempt to remove the non‑user‑replaceable battery.
Pacemakers and other medical devices
Studies have shown that there may be a potential interaction between mobile devices and normal pacemaker operation.
The pacemaker industry recommends that people with pacemakers follow these guidelines to minimise any risk of interference with pacemaker operation:
• Always maintain a distance of 6 inches
(15 cm) between the pacemaker and any mobile device that is turned on.
• Store the device on the opposite side from the pacemaker. Do not carry the device in a breast pocket.
• Use the ear farthest from the pacemaker in order to minimise any potential for interference.
• If you think that interference may be occurring, turn off the device immediately.
14
• For other medical devices, consult with your physician or the manufacturer to determine if your mobile device may interfere with the medical device and to determine any precautions that you can take to avoid interference.
CaUTion avoiding hearing damage
You can permanently damage your ears and lose hearing if you listen to the device, earbuds or headphones at high volume. The volume is typically too loud if you cannot hear people speaking around you. Limit the amount of time you listen at high volume.
If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked.
avoiding repetitive motion
You may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck or other parts of your body if you perform repetitive activities, such as typing, on the mobile device. Take frequent breaks. If you have discomfort while or after using the device, stop using it and see a physician.
Garmin-Asus A10 Quick Start Manual
avoiding seizures, blackouts and eyestrain

radio frequency exposure/ specific absorption rate
This device is a transmitter and receiver that uses its antenna to send and receive low levels of radio frequency (RF) energy for voice and data communications. The cellular antenna is located along the bottom edge of the rear of the phone. The Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth antenna is located between the volume keys and the camera on the rear of the phone.
This device must not be co‑located or operated in conjunction with any other transmitter or antenna.
16
Regular review of scientific research and studies has led to the formation of international safety guidelines and regulations regarding limiting exposure to this RF energy. This product emits
RF energy below the published limits when operating in its maximum output power mode and when used with Garmin authorised accessories. These guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the specific absorption rate, SAR. The SAR limit applicable to this device set by the
FCC is 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg),
1.6 W/kg by Industry Canada and 2.0 W/kg by the Council of the European Union.
This phone has been tested and meets FCC,
Canadian and European RF exposure guidelines for body‑worn operation when used with an accessory that contains no metal and positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC, Canadian, EU or other local
RF exposure requirements. The actual measured values are as follows:
