WARNING

Removing original equipment, adding accessories or modifying your vehicle could affect the vehicle's safety or make it illegal to operate in some jurisdictions.

Follow all product instructions and all instructions in your vehicle owner's manual regarding accessories or modifications.

Consult your country's and/or state's laws regarding operation of a vehicle with any accessories or modifications.

It is your sole responsibility to place, secure and use your Mio in a manner that will not cause accidents, personal injury or property damage. Always observe safe driving practices.

Do not mount your Mio in a way that may interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle, the deployment of air bags or other safety equipment.

Do not operate your Mio while driving.

Before you use your Mio for the first time, familiarize yourself with your device and its operation.

On main roads, the distance to an exit calculated by the Mio may be further than the distance shown on road signs. Road signs show the distance to the start of an exit while the Mio shows the distance to the next intersection, i.e., the end of the exit ramp or road. To prepare to exit a road, always follow distance information on road signs.

The use of information regarding safety or speed camera locations may be subject to local laws in the country of use. You are responsible for checking that you can legally use the information in your country or in the country where the information will be used.

CAUTION

Do not handle the Mio while it is hot. Let the product cool, out of direct sunlight.

CAUTION

Do not expose the Mio to direct sunlight in an unattended vehicle for prolonged periods. Overheating may damage the unit.

Note: To discourage theft, do not leave the Mio, mounting bracket or any cables in plain view in an unattended vehicle.

Home Charger-specific safety information

WARNING

To charge your Mio from the mains power, use the home charger supplied by Mio as an accessory (may be sold separately). Using other home chargers with your Mio could result in serious injury or property damage.

Never use the charger if the plug or cord is damaged.

Do not expose the charger to moisture or water. Do not use the charger in a high moisture environment. Exposure to water may cause electrical sparks or fires.

Never touch the charger when your hands or feet are wet.

Allow adequate ventilation around the charger when using it to operate your Mio or charge the Mio internal battery. Do not cover the charger with paper or other objects that will reduce ventilation. Do not use the charger while it is inside a carrying case or other container.

Ensure that the charger is connected to a power source with the correct fitting and voltage requirements. The voltage requirements can be found on the home charger casing and/or packaging.

Do not attempt to service the charger as this could result in personal injury. Replace the charger if it is damaged or exposed to excess moisture.

Internal battery-specific safety information

WARNING

The Mio contains a non-replaceable internal lithium-ion polymer battery. The battery may burst or explode if mishandled, releasing hazardous chemicals. To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush or puncture the battery.

Recycle or dispose of the battery safely and properly according to local laws and regulations. Do not dispose of the battery in fire or water.

CAUTION

Only use the correct home charger (sold separately) or in-car charger supplied by Mio to charge the Mio internal battery. Only use the Mio internal battery with the Mio unit.

The Mio battery will stop charging when the ambient temperature is less than 0^ C ( 32^ F) or more than 40^ C ( 104^ F).

Failure to adhere to these warnings and cautions may lead to death, serious injury or property damage. Mio disclaims all liability for installation or use of the Mio that causes or contributes to death, injury or property damage or that violates any law.

Warning Notice to Drivers in the United States

State law may prohibit drivers in states such as Arizona, California and Minnesota from mounting objects on their windshields while driving. Please make sure you research and follow your most current State laws. An alternative mounting option is provided in the box with your product, also, stores offer additional mounting alternatives. Mio does not take any responsibility for any fines, penalties, or damages that may be incurred as a result of disregarding this notice.

Caring for your Mio

Taking good care of your Mio will ensure trouble-free operation and reduce the risk of damage to your Mio.

• Keep your Mio away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.
  ■ Avoid exposing your Mio to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of time.
  ■ Do not place anything on top of your Mio or drop objects on your Mio.
  ■ Do not drop your Mio or subject it to severe shock.
• Do not subject your Mio to sudden and severe temperature changes. This could cause moisture condensation inside the unit, which could damage your Mio. In the event of moisture condensation, allow the Mio to dry out completely before use.
• The screen surface can easily be scratched. Avoid touching it with sharp objects. Non-adhesive generic screen protectors designed specifically for use on portable devices with LCD panels may be used to help protect the screen from minor scratches.
  ■ Never clean your Mio with it powered on. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the screen and the exterior of your Mio.
  ■ Do not use paper towels to clean the screen.
• Never attempt to disassemble, repair or make any modifications to your Mio. Disassembly, modification or any attempt at repair could cause damage to your Mio and even bodily injury or property damage and will void any warranty.
  ■ Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the same compartment as your Mio, its parts or accessories.

How do I install my Mio?

CAUTION:

• Select an appropriate location for mounting the Mio in a vehicle. Never place the Mio where the driver's field of vision is blocked.
• If the car's windscreen is tinted with a reflective coating, it may be athermic and impact the GPS reception. In this instance, please mount your Mio where there is a “clear area.”
• To protect your Mio against sudden surges in current, connect the car charger only after the car engine has been started.

Shutdown and hardware reset

Occasionally, you may need to perform a hardware reset when your Mio stops responding; or appears to be "frozen" or "locked-up."

You can perform a hardware reset by shutting down your Mio and then turning it back on. To shut down your Mio, slide the power switch to the RESET position. To turn on your Mio after shutting it down, slide the power switch to the ON position.

Note: Switching to the Reset position turns the battery off. It is recommended you move the switch to this position if you are planning to store your Mio for any length of time.

Charging the battery via the USB cable

If you intend to charge your Mio in this way, turn off your Mio so that it takes less time to charge the battery.

1. Turn on the computer.
2. Connect the mini-USB end of the USB cable to the bottom of your Mio and the other end to a USB port on your computer.

Note: If your Mio is on when connected to a computer, a screen appears to prevent you from using your Mio.

Note: When the Mio is connected to a computer, it is recognized as an external mass storage device. Do not delete any files pre-installed in the Mio. Deleting files of which the function is unknown can cause programs or features to malfunction.
