Data subject to erasure
The information is erased by disconnecting
the yellow lead from the battery (or removing
the battery itself).
p Some data remains. Be sure to read Return-
ing the AppRadio to the default or factory

Parking brake interlock
Certain functions (such as viewing of App-
based visual content and certain touch panel
key operations) offered by this product could
be dangerous and/or unlawful if used while
driving. To prevent such functions from being
used while the vehicle is in motion, there is an
interlock system that senses when the parking
brake is set. If you attempt to use the functions
described above while driving, they will be-
come disabled until you stop the vehicle in a
safe place, and (1) apply the parking brake, (2)
release the parking brake, and then (3) apply
the parking brake again. Please keep the
brake pedal pushed down before releasing the
parking brake.
Protecting the LCD panel
and screen
p Do not allow direct sunlight to fall on the
LCD screen when this product is not being
used. Extended exposure to direct sunlight
can result in LCD screen malfunction due
to the resulting high temperatures.
p When using a cellular phone, keep the an-
tenna of the cellular phone away from the
LCD screen to prevent disruption of the
video in the form of spots, colored stripes,
etc.
p To protect the LCD screen from damage, be
sure to tap the touch panel keys with your
finger only and gently touch the screen.

In some driving conditions, signals from
GPS satellites may not reach your vehicle.
In this case, it is impossible for the system
to use GPS positioning.
Positioning technology
Positioning by GPS
The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a
network of satellites orbiting the Earth. Each
of the satellites, which orbit at a height of
68 900 000 feet (21 000 km), continually broad-
casts radio signals giving time and position in-
formation. This ensures that signals from at
least three can be picked up from any open
area on the ground’s surface.
The accuracy of the GPS information depends
on how good the reception is. When the sig-
nals are strong and reception is good, GPS
can determine latitude, longitude and altitude
for accurate positioning in three dimensions.
But if signal quality is poor, only two dimen-
sions, latitude and longitude, can be obtained
and positioning errors are somewhat greater.
In tunnels or en-
closed parking
garages
Under elevated
roads or similar
structures
When driving
among high build-
ings
When driving through
a dense forest or tall
trees
!
!
If a car phone or cellular phone is used
near the GPS antenna, GPS reception may
be lost temporarily.
Do not cover the GPS antenna with spray
paint or car wax, because this may block
the reception of GPS signals. Snow buildup
can also degrade the signals, so keep the
antenna clear.
p If a GPS signal has not been received for a
long time, your vehicle’s actual position
and the current position mark on the map
may diverge considerably or may not be up-
dated. In such case, once GPS reception is
restored, accuracy will be recovered.
Handling large errors
Positioning errors are kept to a minimum by
combining GPS, dead reckoning and map
matching. However, in some situations, these
functions may not work properly, and the error
may become bigger.
Conditions likely to cause
noticeable positioning errors
For various reasons, such as the state of the
road you are traveling on and the reception
status of the GPS signal, the actual position of
your vehicle may differ from the position dis-
played on the map screen.
When positioning by GPS is
impossible
!
GPS positioning is disabled if signals can-
not be received from more than two GPS
satellites.
