Using this navigator implies that the user accepts and
follows all these warnings and all the instructions
contained on this manual.
•The manufacturer and the distribution chain
disclaim any liability deriving from an improper use
of the device in a way that may cause accidents or
damages to things or persons.
•The driver is held responsible for using Geosat in the
correct way (passenger or non passenger mode).
•The User should ignore the indications suggested
by Geosat in situations that appear to be in contrast
with the Highway Code.
•The Manufacturer and the distribution chain
disclaim any liability deriving from an improper use
of the device in a way that may violate the Highway
Code.
•Do not switch on the GSM phone when and where it
is forbidden the use of mobile phones, or when it can
cause interferences or dangerous situations.
•Please respect the restrictions: switch o the
device in airplanes, close to medical appliances,
fuel, chemical substances or explosives.
•Do not program the navigator while driving
•The HERE cartographic data loaded in the navigator
may present some discrepancies from the reality.
This is due to the continuous changes in the street
network. Some areas have a better coverage than
others.
II. Warning
AvMap - 9
•Network Services: in order to use the phone you
need to request the service to a Carrier. The carrier
will provide you with all the necessary information
on fees. Some networks may have restrictions on
the use of some services.
II.I Advices for a good use of the
navigator
1.Do not place the navigator in positions that may
obstruct the driver’s view
2.Do not place the navigator in positions that may
interfere with the correct functioning of the security/
safety equipment of the vehicle (e.g. airbags).
3.Make sure that the navigator is correctly attached
to the bracket before driving.
4.This device IS NOT water proof, avoid wetting it.
5.Do not rely exclusively on vocal instructions.
Depending on a variety of factors, (speed, weather,
GPS reception etc) these instructions may not be
correct or timely. Always take the information
provided as indicative, and always respect the
Highway Code. Satellite navigators should be
considered merely as aids. The driver is held
responsible for safe driving and the choice of the
best route to take.
6.During the trip it is possible to get instructions
like: ‘Bear the right’ or “Right turn in 300 m”; these
instructions are based on the preloaded cartographic
data and could dier from the actual conditions
of the street. In proximity of round about or big
crossings drive carefully as the vocal instructions
10 - AvMap
may not be simple.
7.Do not consult the navigator whilst driving if this
represents a danger for you and other people.
8.Only AvMap branded SD cards are compatible
with AvMap satellite navigators. No other SD can be
used.
