Warning
  • Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control that may lead to an accident, severe bodily injury, or death. The driver′s primary responsibility is the safe and legal operation of the vehicle, and the use of any vehicle systems, including the touch screen and steering wheel controls, which take the driver′s eyes, attention, and focus away from the safe operation of the vehicle, or which are not permissible by law, should never be used during the operation of the vehicle.
  • Park your vehicle in a safe location before connecting any Bluetooth devices. Distracted driving can cause a traffic accident and lead to personal injury or death.
  • Never dial a phone number by entering it manually or pick up your mobile phone while driving. Use of a mobile phone may distract your attention, making it difficult to recognize external conditions and reducing the ability to cope with unexpected situations, which may lead to an accident.
