area and you must have a GPS enabled and activated cell phone. See
your cell phone owner’s manual to determine if your cell phone has
that feature and make sure that the feature is activated.

ment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
