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.
  • •  Some functions may not be active while driving to ensure safety. Those functions run only when the vehicle is stationary. In order to use them, first stop the vehicle.
  • •  When the screen is not displayed, the volume is muted, or other system failures occur, immediately stop using the system. When you use the faulty system continuously, it may cause fire, electric shock, or fatal system failure.

Caution

  • •  The system can be turned on even when the ignition switch is in "ACC" or "ON." However, when you use the system without turning on the vehicle for a long time, it may cause battery discharge. To use the system for a long time, be sure to turn on the vehicle.
  • •  When you use the system with the vehicle turned off, the battery warning message appears. The warning message disappears as soon as you turn on the vehicle.
  • When you turn off and on the vehicle, the system is turned on with the mode and settings used when the vehicle was turned off.
  • To prevent audio from playing loud when you turn on the vehicle, adjust the system volume to an adequate level.
  • To automatically decrease the system volume, move to the All Menus screen and press Setup ▶ Sound ▶ Premium Sound ▶ Start-up Volume Limit to set the function. ▶ See "Start-up Volume Limit."
