Warnings and Notices
For your safety, do not operate the controls of the product while driving.
GPS satellite signals cannot typically pass through solid materials (except 
glass). GPS location information is not typically available inside buildings, tun-
nels, or underground parking lots.
A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals is needed to calculate your GPS position. 
Signal reception can be affected by weather events or overhead obstacles (e.g. 
dense foliage and tall buildings).
Other wireless devices in the vehicle may interfere with the reception of satel-
lite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
Adapter
Do not attempt to service the unit. There are no serviceable parts inside. 
Replace the unit if it is damaged or exposed to excess moisture.
Do not use the adapter if the cord becomes damaged. 
Connect the adapter to the proper power source. The voltage requirements are 
found on the product case and/or packaging.
Battery
This unit contains a non-replaceable internal Lithium Ion battery. The battery
