The CoPilot map database is remarkably accurate, providing comprehensive, detailed street information. From the most populated cities to the smallest hamlets, CoPilot map data has been created to support your travels wherever they may take you.
ALK continually updates the CoPilot map database as we strive to provide you with the highest quality product. If you encounter missing or inaccurate map data, please contact us and let us know so that we can include it in our updates. See Data Corrections p. 63 for complete instructions.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a tracking and navigation system developed by the
U.S. Department of Defense. The system uses 24 satellites that orbit the earth, sending out radio waves that can be picked up by GPS sensors (hardware devices for receiving data).
Normally, a GPS sensor relies on receiving signals from four satellites simultaneously to track its position. Each signal contains an identifier for the satellite that emitted it and the exact time it was emitted (to the nanosecond). GPS relies on the fact that radio waves travel at the speed of light to calculate distances and the exact location of the sensor is figured by combining the data received from three or four satellites.
Given the right conditions, a GPS sensor can identify your geographic position anywhere in the world. GPS is able to give you the latitude, longitude and elevation of your present location, as well as your road speed and direction of travel on a route.
The GPS signal CoPilot receives from the constellation of satellites has a rated accuracy of
10 meters. This means that 95% of the time the reported location is within 10 meters (30 feet) of your exact position. CoPilot takes this location information and enhances it further by "snapping" it to our street and highway network. Occasionally, CoPilot will place you on the wrong road. If this occurs, keep driving and CoPilot will automatically correct itself and find your proper position.
At times, CoPilot's GPS tracking will be less accurate or fail to work at all because the unit is unable to receive satellite signals. However, the unit is resilient; eventually, it finds itself.
Its ability to report your location is directly proportional to its ability to receive accurate line-of-sight satellite signals. Heavy foliage, buildings, tunnels, or any other structures obstructing satellite communications will interfere with CoPilot's ability to track your
- 2 -
location.
Like your car radio, GPS tracking can also be affected by weather conditions if severe. CoPilot will continue tracking as soon as adequate signals are available.
NOTE: The GPS unit should be placed far forward on the dashboard to maximize the satellite reception area.
WARNING:
CoPilot navigation instructions are only computer-generated advisories and may contain errors. Obey all traffic regulations even if they are completely contradictory to the navigation suggestions. Keep your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel!
Do not attempt to look at the screen if you are the driver. ALK ® assumes no responsibility for any damage or injury resulting from the use of this product.
CoPilot uses the GPS positional data it receives from the GPS receiver to display your current position and route on a map as you drive. This is called “tracking.” CoPilot also uses the GPS data it receives to “navigate,” that is, to guide you along your planned route, provided you enter a destination.
If you enter a destination you will be given navigation instructions, and your route will be tracked on the map. If you do not enter a destination, your route will be tracked as you drive, but you will not be given directions as CoPilot has no way of knowing your destination.
Do not use this product in any way that interferes with safe and attentive operation of a vehicle. When used in a vehicle, do not place the GPS receiver, antenna, power supply, or your computer where it may strike the driver or passengers if the vehicle turns sharply or stops abruptly. This product is designed, manufactured, and intended as an aid to planning, tracking, and following routes in privately owned vehicles.
The accuracy of the map data, driving directions, and GPS tracking system is insufficient for this product to be used for automated navigation or in any situation in which the failure of the product could lead directly to death, personal injury, or physical or environmental damage. The driver must remain alert at all times to actual road conditions and obey all posted signs and traffic regulations. ALK Technologies and its suppliers specifically disclaim any express or implied warranty of fitness of this product for automated navigation or for aiding in the operation of other than a privately owned vehicle.

WARNING: Never leave your GPS receiver in a closed vehicle that exceeds 140o F.
Excessive heat may damage it.
The GPS unit should be placed far forward on the dashboard of your vehicle to maximize the satellite reception area. The GPS receiver works like a radio antenna, so place it at least two feet away from possible sources of interference (for instance, a cellular phone antenna).
The first time you use your GPS receiver it can take up to 15 minutes to acquire a satellite fix. After you use it once, the receiver should initialize within a few minutes.
If you are using a USB connection you will have one wire which attaches the GPS receiver to the laptop through its USB port. Plug the receiver into the laptop after Windows is finished booting up. Windows XP Users: When you first connect your USB receiver, you might see a Windows message indicating that the drivers have not passed Windows
Logo testing (or a similar warning). Ignore this message and click Continue Anyway if it appears.

Routing Preferences
To set routing preferences in Guidance Mode, click
Options , then click Routing in the Options menu.
Note that the changes you make here in the Routing
Preferences window will carry over to Planning
Mode, and vice versa.
Basic Options:
Vehicle Type
CoPilot comes with pre-defined routing options that provide RV-friendly routing (choose RV ) or routing that is calculated specifically for most light vehicles such as cars, SUVs, and small trucks (choose
Automobile ). If you choose RV routing, narrow roads, tight turns, and U-turns will all be minimized to provide you with the safest and easiest way to drive your RV or other large vehicle. In the United States only , RV routing completely avoids highways that have bridge heights under 12'6". It DOES NOT factor bridge heights into consideration on smaller, local roads. For your safety, always take note of bridge heights when driving large RV's.
Routing Type
CoPilot’s Quickest routing type is based on the most efficient route in terms of road quality, terrain, and urban/rural road classifications. CoPilot’s Shortest routing type calculates the shortest route while maintaining reasonable standards of practicality. A Scenic route will take more rural and scenic roads wherever possible and practical.
Routing Options
When Avoid Tolls is checked, CoPilot’s route calculations will avoid toll roads where it is possible to do so while maintaining a reasonably practical and efficient route.
When International Borders Open is checked, routes may cross international borders to provide better routing. If this option is not checked, no borders will be crossed. Check Break
Every to include a break time that shows up in your on-screen itinerary and is added to the estimated time of arrival (ETA) calculations.
Check Avoid Propane-Restricted Tunnels if your vehicle is carrying propane and you want
CoPilot to route around restricted tunnels.
- 26 -
Advanced Options:
Use the advanced routing options to completely change how CoPilot calculates routes. Advanced options include avoid/favor preferences and average speed settings for each road type CoPilot uses in route calculations.
1) Select Advanced .
2) Tap New to create a new Profile.
3) For each road type, use the slider bars to set the avoid/favor level and select or type a road speed.
There are five levels of avoid/favor for each road type. From left to right they are:
Strongly Avoid
Avoid
Neutral
Favor
Note that a road type that is heavily avoided will not be completely excluded — CoPIlot will still use that road type if there is no other efficient alternative.
ALSO NOTE: Even small changes to the avoid/ favor balance will have a significant effect on how
CoPilot calculates routes.
4) Type a name for this profile.
5) Click OK . Your new profile is now saved.
6) In the Routing Preferences window, check

Suppose you and a friend want to go to a concert on the campus of Princeton University in
Princeton, New Jersey. You know the approximate location of your destination, but you’re unfamiliar with the area. There’s no need to worry about the trip: CoPilot will guide you every step of the way!
First, you enter your destination. (You won’t need to enter a starting place – if your GPS receiver is picking up signals, CoPilot already knows where you’re starting from.) In
Guidance Mode, your friend clicks Destination , then Add , then POI . She types “Princeton
University” in the POIs that start with box and clicks Find . In a few seconds, CoPilot finds “Princeton University” in the database and your friend clicks Select , then Add , and then Go!
Now you’re ready to drive to your destination.
Once the car is moving, your location shows up as a series of arrows drawn on the map. A green-highlighted line from your present location to your destination shows the route for you to follow. In addition, CoPilot prompts you before each turn if Speaking is turned on.
CoPilot leads you into Princeton without a problem. However, as you drive along
Witherspoon Street approaching the center of town, you see a traffic jam caused by an accident up ahead. You decide to take a left turn onto Wiggins Street in order to save some time.
No Problem! Within seconds, CoPilot tells you that you are no longer on the correct route and automatically gives you new directions to follow from your new position (illustrated on the next page). You still get to the concert on time and enjoy a relaxing trip!

To enter a street address, click in the Address box. (This is not required. If no street address is entered, CoPilot will route from a point at the center of the city or town you selected.)
Again, a list of matches to your entry may appear; if so, highlight the one you want on the list and click Select , or click Map to see it on the map. If you enter a street address you can also assign a name to the address by typing it into the Name box.
You can enter a crossroad as a stop by using an ampersand ( & ). Example: If you want to go to the corner of Main Street and Washington Street, type “ Main & Washington ” in the Address field. You might see a list of matches - these are addresses where the streets intersect.
Click the Add Stop button to put the place you entered in the Trip
Itinerary . You can then highlight it and click the Zoom To button to see that place on the map.
HINT: If you need help with the spelling of a city name, type the first few letters (at least two) plus the state abbreviation and press <Enter> . Then highlight the place on the list and click Select . Spelling help for street names is accessed by entering the first two or more letters of the street name. The pick list will take longer to come up when there are more matches to your entry in the database.
- 33 -
When you select the Points of Interest tab, it will open with the cursor in the POIs that start with box. The only field that is required to perform a POI search is City/State (or
City/Country ); all other fields are optional. Once you have entered a city, you can do one or more of the following to narrow down your search: select a POI Category , select an of Type option, or enter the first few letters of the Place name. You can also change the distance within which you want to search.
When you are finished entering in your search information, click the Find button to get a list of all possible matches within the database. To select one, highlight it by clicking on it and choose Select to add the place to your itinerary, Cancel to return to the search, Map to show the place’s location on a map, or Clear to change your selection. For information on changing the POI set, see page 32.
To save a place as a favorite you must first add it to your Itinerary using the Cities and
Addresses or Points of Interest tab and then click Add Fav . When you click on the
Favorites tab you will see a list of your previously saved favorite places. To add a favorite place to your trip, highlight it and click Add Stop . In this tab, you can also specify a
Home and Work address. To do this, highlight an address on the list of favorites and click the circle next to Home or Work under the list. Now your home or work address can be quickly selected as a destination in Guidance Mode. Remember that while you can access your Home and Work address from Guidance Mode, they can only be changed through the
Favorites tab in Planning Mode.
You can access your Outlook Contacts database by clicking on the Contacts tab. Narrow down your contact search by typing in the first few letters of the contact’s first or last name and hit the <Enter> or <Space> key. Select the contact from the list and preview the Work , Home , or Other address by selecting the corresponding radio button. Click on the Add Stop button and CoPilot will search for that contact’s address. If an exact match is found, CoPilot will automatically update your itinerary. If an exact match is not found,
CoPilot will display a list of possible address matches to choose from.

CoPilot Live’s Custom Place Import Wizard enables you to import addresses from your
Outlook Contacts database, an Excel file, or text file. (If you are using another type of database or contact manager, you can export your contacts/locations to an Excel or text file before importing them into CoPilot Live.) These points are then added to CoPilot’s POI database, in a category and type of your choice. Once in the database, they are displayed on maps as pushpins and included in search results when you search for points of interest in either Planning or Guidance Mode. NOTE: CoPilot now allows importing of multiple POIs with the same name (e.g. an entire database of “Starbucks”).
To import, choose Import Custom Places from the Tools menu in Planning Mode, then follow the step-by-step instructions given by the Wizard. Use the Data Import Status window to edit any addresses that were not accepted during the importing process, then click Add to import the final list of addresses. For more detailed instructions, refer to the
CoPilot Live Help files on your desktop ( Help Contents and Search in the Help menu).
.OV2 file sets of POI can now be imported. Simply place the .OV2 file in the Save folder of your CoPilot installation (usually Program Files/CoPilot/Laptop 9/NA/Save), then restart
CoPilot and you will see these POI on the map. To use your own bitmap to represent these
POI, also place a bitmap file in the Save folder along with the .OV2 file. Note that both files will be deleted from the Save folder once CoPilot restarts.
Example: You have a file called ‘walmarts.ov2’ with all Walmart locations. If you load an image of a large W called ‘walmarts.bmp’ along with the ov2 file, CoPilot will display that image for that POI set.
- 42 -
After custom places have been added to the database, they can be edited at any time. Select
Manage Custom Places from the Tools menu, then highlight the custom place you wish to edit, click Edit , and make your changes. Click Apply when finished.
NOTE: By default, addresses entered as Custom Places are assigned to the Custom POI category. You can change this assignment at any time by selecting another Category from the drop-down pick list as you edit.
- 43 -
CoPilot gives you precise, turn-by-turn driving directions, plus time and distance calculations for every trip you run between a start place and a destination. Print these directions, and/or customize them by editing the font CoPilot uses and by controlling the number of “nearby places” -- that is, landmarks or places of interest in the area surrounding your route -- that appear in the report.
To change the appearance of your driving directions, choose Change Fonts from the submenu of Itinerary Fonts in the Edit menu. This opens a standard Windows dialog box that allows you to change the size and style of the font in the driving directions as you would in any Microsoft Word document.
- 44 -
To control the number and type of landmarks reported, select Landmark Reporting from the Trip menu to open the Landmark Reporting dialog box.
NOTE: You can use these options in Planning Mode, but not in Guidance Mode.
Use the slide bar under Find landmarks within this distance of your route to control the size of the area around your route in which landmarks should be reported. If you simply want to exclude all landmarks from your driving directions to avoid clutter, move the slide to 0 and click OK to close the dialog box. You can also have landmarks reported only along certain types of roads. Under Find landmarks when driving on these kinds of roads , use the check boxes to include or exclude the listed road types.
To increase or decrease the number of landmarks reported, use the slide bar under Report this quantity of landmarks in the driving directions .
TIP: The more places you want reported, the more time it will take to generate the driving directions and map for your trip.
You can also select which categories of landmarks you want reported. Place a checkmark next to each category to be included by clicking in the box next to the category name.

• Real-time tracking of other people who are on the road. See their current location, destination, ETA and much more on a map.
• Send trip itinerary updates including new stops and revised destinations — you can coordinate a change in plans with someone who’s on the road right now.
• Create an online account from where you can send temporary or permanent tracking numbers to friends and family, giving you tighter control of the security so you know who has access to you while you’re on the road. You can also create and join groups with other CoPilot users, and manage all your account preferences.

Using CoPilot Live’s Invitations, you can send a tracking number to friends and family via email so they can see where you are and communicate with you as you drive. Each e-mail Invitation — similar to an e-card — contains a link to the ALK Live Web page, a tracking number, and an invitation to the recipient to log on to the ALK Live Network. (To see an Invitation, try sending yourself one using the instructions below.)
Only those who have access to your tracking number can see you and send/receive messages on the Web. CoPilot gives you the option to turn off any tracking number you send so that it becomes invalid after a specifi ed number of days. For the recipient of an Invitation to see you, both of you must have an internet connection and you must be using CoPilot and receiving
GPS signals in your vehicle.
To send an invitation:
1. In the Guidance screen, click Options > Live > Invitations > New .
2. Enter the name of the recipient (this will appear in the e-mail) and, if you want to set an expiration date for the tracking number, check “ Turn off in ” and enter a number.
3. Click Send , then type the recipient’s e-mail address and click Send .
You can invalidate a tracking number manually at any time before it’s due to expire: highlight the invitation and click Deactivate . To restore it, click Activate .
To delete an invitation from the list, highlight it and click Delete . To edit the name of the recipient, click Edit .

When you are the driver and a message is sent to you, CoPilot displays it on top of all other windows. CoPilot's text-to-speech engine will speak the text of the message out loud when the message is received. If you hit the Defer button (see below) or do not respond within the time limit you have set (see p. 49), the message will be put in a queue and the Hidden Messages button in the lower right corner of the Guidance screen will light up. Click this button to read the message. If other messages have been queued behind it, messages will appear in the order they were sent.
On the top are the four Standard Response Buttons , which appear on every message:
Speak Message: CoPilot Live's text-to-speech engine speaks the text of the message.
Defer Message: Defers the message, which will reappear later. Useful when you need to concentrate on the turn instructions and the road.
More Information: Sends a response back that you need more information.
Delete Message: Deletes the message. Notice of the delete is sent back.
You can also tap one of the Customizable Response Buttons that the message sender has included at the bottom of the screen. The text on the button is sent back as the response.
- 52 -
When you are the driver and a Trip Itinerary Update is sent to you, CoPilot Live displays it on top of all other windows. CoPilot Live's text-to-speech engine will speak the itinerary update when it is received.
You have the option to use the four Standard Response Buttons (see p. 52).
You can also Accept or Decline the change to your trip itinerary. If you accept, CoPilot
Live will automatically start giving route guidance from your current location using the new itinerary.

* Not available in CoPilot | Navigator 9. Please contact ALK Technologies for information on upgrading your CoPilot product.
In addition to providing pre-trip planning, GPS route guidance, and Live messaging capabilities, CoPilot Live uses wireless communications to automatically send real-time information to drivers, notifying them of traffic incidents along the route ahead and creating potential alternate routing. In Guidance Mode , CoPilot Live can provide you with regularly updated traffic incident reports and alternate routes based on your destination and route ahead. (Note that CoPilot must have GPS acquisition, a user-inputted destination, and
Internet access in order to provide real-time traffic information.)
There are two ways to receive real-time traffic feeds with CoPilot Live:
1. Use a wireless Internet (GPRS) connection to receive traffic incidents through a traffic service provider.
2. Use a TMC-enabled traffic receiver to obtain traffic incidents through a dedicated FM band.
Traffic is an optional additional-cost service and is not available in all areas.
Begin by launching CoPilot Live on your laptop. CoPilot must have GPS acquisition, a user-inputted destination, and a traffic feed (GPRS or TMC). In Guidance mode, click the
Live button, check Enable Live Network and check Enable Traffic to turn traffic reporting on. Use the Traffic buttons to check, review, and edit your alerts and to change settings as described on p. 55-56.
- 54 -
Click the Check Traffic button to see all traffic incidents on the route ahead between your current position and your destination. CoPilot will take a few seconds to check for incidents. If any incidents are found, they are reported one by one beginning with the one closest to you. You will see them on the map (see p. 57) and can decide whether you want
CoPilot to continue along the current route or to generate an alternate route around the reported congestion (you’ll be able to accept or reject the alternate route).
If you want CoPilot to generate an alternate route around an incident, click the Avoid button. If you wish to ignore the incident, click one of the two arrows. The forward arrow takes you to the next incident (if there is one) and the back arrow takes you to the previous incident (if there is one).
If you do not respond to a message, it will be automatically hidden after the amount of time you set in the Live Options window (p. 49) — or after
30 seconds by default. When that happens, CoPilot will either ignore or route around the incident based on how you have set your options — see Traffic
Settings , p. 56.
- 55 -
The Check Traffic button in the Live Options window brings up only new incidents along your route that have not been reported yet. To review the traffic incidents that were already reported, click the Review Traffic button. To clear the traffic incident queue so that Check
Traffic brings up every incident, click Clear Traffic .
Click Settings in the Traffic section of the Live Options window to set additional options that tell CoPilot how to handle incident reporting.
The Speak new incidents check box controls whether CoPilot speaks each incident message out loud when it appears. Check Automatically check for new incidents if you want to be notified about congestion without having to manually check it yourself. Choose a time interval for automatic reporting from the pick list.
When CoPilot hides an incident alert that did not receive a response, by default that incident will be ignored. If you would like CoPilot to automatically generate an alternate route for each alert you do not respond to, choose Avoid from the Default incident action pick list.
Click Go to save your settings.
- 56 -
Traffic incidents are represented on CoPilot Live’s maps by the triangular icons shown below. These icons reflect the location(s) and type of traffic congestion ahead on your route.

NOTE: The sound files must be saved in OGG or WAV format.
EXAMPLE:
- Create a folder—the name of the folder can be anything you want
(for this example we’ll use ‘Fun Voice’ as the folder name).
- Record sound files to replace some or all of the CoPilot sound files
(CoPilot will use the default voice for sound files it does not find).
- Copy the folder with the new sound files to C:\Program Files\CoPilot\Navigator 9\
Speeech.

First things to check: Are all cables properly secured? Do all components have adequate power? Does your GPS receiver have a clear view of the sky? (Buildings, mountains and heavy foliage may block your satellite reception.)
The first time the GPS receiver is used it can take approximately 15 minutes to acquire a signal. This should not be the case with subsequent uses.
?
When the GPS unit is first initialized it can take several minutes for the receiver to locate the satellites in orbit. Be sure that the GPS receiver has an unobstructed view of the sky.
* Not available in CoPilot | Navigator 9. Please contact ALK Technologies for information on upgrading your CoPilot product.
For CoPilot to listen and respond, the Listening button must be toggled on in the lower right corner of the Guidance screen. Background noise may affect CoPilot's ability to recognize spoken commands. You can use an external microphone with noise-cancellation technology to optimize your experience with CoPilot's listening device.
Listening On Listening Off
To hear CoPilot speak to you, the Speaking button must be toggled on in the lower right corner of the Guidance screen.
Speech On Speech Off
Most laptops come equipped with a sound card and built-in speakers. You can adjust the volume output from your laptop by using the Volume Control panel that comes with your system. Frequently, however, the small speakers on a laptop won't produce sufficient volume to be heard in a moving automobile. To amplify the output, you can plug something into the speaker jack, such as additional speakers.
- 60 -
Another alternative is to purchase an audio cassette adapter equipped with a cord and jack that you can plug into your laptop's speaker jack, then put the cassette into your car's stereo cassette player. This will channel CoPilot's commands through your car's stereo system if it's set to play audio tapes.
NOTE: Please don't drive with headphones on because this is unsafe!
1 .
Is the Data Disc in the CD-ROM drive?
A.
If yes, see question 2 below.
B.
If no, place the Data Disc in your CD-ROM drive and try using CoPilot again. If you are still having trouble once the Data Disc is in your CD-ROM drive, see question
2 below.
2 .
Is the underside (the side without artwork) of the Data Disc clean?
A. If yes, see question 3 below.
B.
If no (you see lint or finger prints), you can clean the CD by using a soft, clean piece of lint free material slightly moistened with water. Place the Data Disc in the CD-ROM drive once it is dry and try using your CoPilot program again.
If you're still having trouble, see question 3 below.
3 . Is CoPilot looking at the right drive when trying to read the Data Disc? To check, please follow the instructions listed below:
A.
First, we need to determine the drive letter of your CD-ROM drive. (If you already know your drive letter, move to step B on the next page.)
To do this:
1.
Go to your Start button/ Programs / Windows Explorer . In the upper left hand corner of your screen, you'll see a white box (it may have a drive displayed in it) with a black arrow just to the right of the white box.
2. Click once on the black arrow so that all of your drives are shown. Your CD-
ROM drive is the one that has the CD-ROM icon next to it. And next to the
CD-ROM icon, there should be a letter - this is your CD-ROM drive letter .
Please remember it and move to section B.
- 61 -
B.
Next, you need to check that CoPilot is looking to this drive to locate the Data Disc.
In the example below, your CD-ROM is the D drive. Your drive letter may be different.
To do this:
1. Go to your Start button/ Programs / Windows Explorer and click on the drive letter which corresponds to your hard drive ( usually C ).
2. Within drive C , find the folder Program Files and double-click on it so that all of your program folders are listed.
3.
Find the "CoPilot Live" folder and double-click on it.
4. Find the “Laptop” folder and double-click on it.
5.
Find the folder APP and double-click on it
6. You'll see a file named "data.cfg" listed among other folders. Double-click on the data.cfg file--Windows will open a new window and prompt you to select a program to open the file with. Scroll down the list of programs and select
Notepad.
7. The second line of the file should read: "LRGridDir"="D:\Data". Make sure the letter between "=" and ":" is your CD-ROM drive letter. If the drive letter is incorrect, change it to the correct letter. Go to file and click on SAVE AS, and then click Save, and then click on Yes to save over existing file.
8. Close Windows Explorer and run CoPilot normally.

If the
Software is permanently installed on the hard disk or other storage device of a computer (other than a network server) and one person uses that computer more than 80 percent of the time it is in use, then that person may also use the Software on a portable or home computer. You may make a single backup or archival copy of the Software for back-up purposes only. You may not transfer this Software or assign this License Agreement to another party.

This License is effective upon receipt by you of the Software and upon opening the package. The
License is effective until terminated. You may terminate this License at any time by returning all copies of the Software, and any portions thereof, to ALK. The License terminates automatically if you fail to comply with any of the terms of this License Agreement. You agree upon such termination to return or destroy this CD-ROM and all other copies of the Software and certify in writing to ALK that you have done so.
3. Limited Warranty:
ALK warrants that all media on which the Software is furnished shall, for a period of 90 days from delivery (the "Warranty Period") be free, in normal use, from defects in material and workmanship.
ALK will have no responsibility to replace any disc(s) that have been damaged by accident, abuse, or misapplication.
Customer Remedies: ALK's entire liability and your exclusive remedy shall be, at ALK's option, either (a) return of the price paid or (b) replacement of the media that does not meet ALK's Limited

ALL OTHERS, ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. No ALK dealer, distributor, agent, or employee is authorized to make any modification or addition to this warranty. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
