Global Positioning System
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based system that provides location and
timing information around the globe. GPS is operated and controlled under the sole res-
ponsibility of the Government of the United States of America, which is responsible for its
availability and accuracy. Any changes in GPS availability and accuracy, or in environmen-
tal conditions, may impact the operation of your TomTom device. TomTom does not
accept any liability for the availability and accuracy of GPS.
Use with Care
Use of a TomTom device for navigation still means that you need to drive with due care
and attention.
Aircraft and Hospitals
Use of devices with an antenna is prohibited on most aircraft, in many hospitals and in
many other locations. A TomTom device must not be used in these environments.
Taking care of your TomTom device
Do not leave your TomTom device or TomTom accessories in view when you leave your
car. They may become an easy target for thieves.
We recommend that you use the safety preferences on your TomTom device, where avai-
lable. The safety preferences are available in the Preferences menu.
Take care of your TomTom device and clean it correctly.
• Use a soft cloth to wipe the screen of your device; do not use any liquid cleaners.
• If your device gets wet, dry it with a soft cloth.
• Do not open the casing of your device under any circumstances. Doing so may be dan-
gerous and will invalidate your warranty.
• If your device includes a memory card, do not use the memory card with any device
other than a TomTom device. Other devices may damage the memory card.
• Do not expose your device to high or low temperatures, which can cause permanent
damage. For example, don't leave it in the car on hot summer days or during cold winter
nights.
