SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

Safety Guidelines

WARNING!
ALWAYS obey traffic laws and pay attention to the road. Your complete attention is always required while driving to maintain safe control of your vehicle. Only use and interact with the features and applications when it is safe to do so. Failure to follow these warn-ings can result in a collision and death or serious per-sonal injury.

Please read this manual carefully before using the sys-tem. It contains instructions on how to use the system in a safe and effective manner.
Do NOT attach any object to the touchscreen. Doing so can result in damage to the touchscreen. Please read and follow these safety precautions. Failure to do so may result in injury or property damage.

• Become familiar with the Uconnect features and applications in this vehicle before you drive on the roadway so using Uconnect will be more intuitive and will not require prolonged viewing of the screen while you are driving.
• When driving, looking at the touchscreen should only be done by a glance when safe to do so. If pro-longed viewing of the screen is required, choose a safe and secure location where you can pull over and park safely to do so.
• Stop use immediately if a problem occurs. Failure to do so may cause injury or damage to the product. See an authorized dealer for repair.
• Ensure the volume level of the system is set to a level that still allows you to hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles.

Safe Usage Of The Uconnect System

• The Uconnect system is a sophisticated electronic device. Do not let young children use the system.
• Permanent hearing loss may occur if you play your music or sound system at loud volumes. Exercise caution when setting the volume on the system.
• Keep drinks, rain and other sources of moisture away from the system. Besides damage to the sys-tem, moisture can cause electric shocks as with any electronic device.

NOTE:
Many features of this system are speed dependent. For your own safety, it is not possible to use some of the touchscreen features while the vehicle is in motion.

Care And Maintenance

• Do not press the touchscreen with any hard or sharp objects (pen, USB stick, jewellery, etc.), which could scratch the surface.
• Do not spray any liquid or chemicals directly on the screen! Use a clean and dry microfiber lens cleaning cloth in order to clean the touchscreen.
• If necessary, use a lint-free cloth dampened with a cleaning solution, such as isopropyl alcohol or an isopropyl alcohol and water solution ratio of 50:50.
