9. Use your phone to help others in emergencies. If you
see an auto accident, crime in progress, or other serious
emergency where lives are in danger, call your national
emergency number, as you would want others to do for
you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-
emergency assistance number when necessary. Certain
situations you encounter while driving may require
attention, but are not urgent enough to merit a call to
your national emergency number. But you can still use
your phone to lend a hand. If you see a broken-down
vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal,
a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or
a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance
or other special non-emergency wireless number.
General Operation
Voice Command Control:
Many of the functions of the
Device Software can be accomplished using only voice
commands. Using voice commands while driving allows you
to initiate the command with a button and then operate the
Device mostly without removing your hands from the wheel.
Prolonged Views of Screen:
If you are driving, do not access
any function requiring a prolonged view of the screen. Pull
over in a safe and legal manner before attempting to access
a function of the system requiring prolonged attention. Even
occasional short scans to the screen may be hazardous if
your attention has been diverted away from your driving task
at a critical time.
Volume Setting:
Do not raise the volume excessively. Keep
the volume at a level where you can still hear outside traffic
and emergency signals while driving. Driving while unable to
hear these sounds could cause an accident.
Let Your Judgment Prevail:
The Device Software is only an
aid. Make your driving decisions based on your observations
of local conditions and existing traffic regulations. The
Device Software is not a substitute for your personal
judgment.
Use of Speech Recognition Functions:
Speech recognition
software is inherently a statistical process which is subject
to errors. It is your responsibility to monitor the speech
recognition functions and address any errors.
Hands-Free Capability
