iv  Navigator III Owner’s ManualPREFACE WarningThis manual uses the term Warning to indicate a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations could result in an accident or collision resulting in death or serious injury.The BMW Motorrad Navigator III must only be secured to BMW motorcycles with holders approved by BMW Motorrad. For use in or on other vehicles, it is the sole responsibility of the owner/operator of the BMW Motorrad Navigator III to place and secure the BMW Motorrad Navigator III so that it does not interfere with vehicle operating controls or obstruct the driver’s view of the road (see diagram). The mounting hardware provided by BMW Motorrad is not warranted against collision damage or the consequences thereof.Do not mount where driver’s field of vision is blocked.Do not place unsecured on the vehicle dash.Do not mount in front of an airbag field of deployment.Tighten the security screw on the top of the motorcycle mount before driving with the BMW Motorcycle Navigator III. Failure to tighten the screw could result in the unit falling out of the mount, which could cause bodily injury or property damage in addition to damage to the unit.It is the sole responsibility of the driver of the vehicle to operate the vehicle in a safe manner, maintain full surveillance of all driving conditions at all times, and not become distracted by the BMW Motorrad Navigator III to the exclusion of safe driving practices. It is unsafe to operate the controls of the BMW Motorrad Navigator III while you are riding or driving. Failure by the driver of a vehicle equipped with a BMW Motorrad Navigator III to pay full attention to operation of the vehicle and road conditions while the vehicle is in motion could result in an accident or collision with property damage and personal injury.Using the BMW Motorrad Navigator III in no way relieves the driver of his own responsibilities. The currently valid traffic regulations must always be observed. Also be aware of the current traffic situation at all times. It is more important to observe the road traffic than look at the display. If the current traffic situation and the information of the BMW Motorrad Navigator III are conflicting, the currently valid traffic regulations and the current traffic situation always have priority over the information given by the BMW Motorrad Navigator III.For road safety reasons, enter details in the Navigator III before starting the journey or with the motorcycle stationary. Only look at the display if the traffic situation allows it; it is more important to observe the traffic and keep the hands on the handlebars. Otherwise, stop at a suitable location and look at the display with the motorcycle stationary.
Navigator III Owner’s Manual  vPREFACEFailure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations may result in injury or property damage.When searching for medical emergency services (hospital or similar), do not rely on the navigation system: it cannot be guaranteed that the information will take you to the nearest emergency service. In this case, use local information sources.Unfortunately, due to constantly changing traffic routes, 100% accuracy cannot be guaranteed under all conditions. It cannot be guaranteed that all suggested routes are passable at all times. For example, roads closed due to weather or work sites cannot be taken into account.The electronic chart is an aid to navigation and is designed to facilitate the use of authorized government charts, not replace them. Only official government charts and notices to mariners contain all information needed for safe navigation, and, as always, the user is responsible for their prudent use.It is the user’s responsibility to use this product prudently. This product is intended to be used only as a travel aid and must not be used for any purpose requiring precise measurement of direction, distance, location or topography. This product should not be used to determine ground proximity for aircraft navigation.The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the government of the United States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The system is subject to changes that could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment. Although the BMW Motorrad Navigator III is a precision NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any navaid can be misused or misinterpreted, and therefore become unsafe. Use the BMW Motorrad Navigator III at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of this Owner’s Manual and thoroughly practice safe operation using the simulator mode prior to actual use. When in actual use, carefully compare indications from the BMW Motorrad Navigator III to all available navigation sources, including the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety, resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation.Set the volume of the BMW Motorrad Navigator III to a level that allows you to hear traffic noise (e.g. police and ambulance sirens).Never attempt to open the BMW Motorrad Navigator III. In the event of problems with the unit, please contact your BMW Motorrad dealer. AttentionThis manual uses the term Attention for special notes and cautionary measures to prevent damage from occurring. Non-compliance can lead to invalidation of warranty.MAP DATA INFORMATION: One of the goals of Garmin is to provide customers with the most complete and accurate cartography that is available to us at a reasonable cost. We use a combination of governmental and private data sources, which we identify in product literature and copyright messages displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate or incomplete data to some extent. In some countries, complete and accurate map information is either not available or is prohibitively expensive.
vi  BMW Motorrad Navigator III Owner’s ManualPREFACECaring for Your Navigator IIIThe Navigator III is constructed of high-quality materials and does not require user maintenance other than cleaning. Cleaning the UnitClean the unit’s outer casing using a cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution. Wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that can damage plastic components.Caring for the Touch ScreenThe touch screen is intended to be operated with a finger. Never use a hard or sharp object to operate the touch screen because damage can result. Though a PDA stylus can also be used to operate the touch screen, never attempt this while operating a vehicle. Clean the touch screen using a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Use water, isopropyl alcohol, or eyeglass cleaner if needed. Apply the liquid to the cloth and then gently wipe the touch screen.Protecting Your Navigator III•  Do not store the unit where prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can occur (such as in the trunk of a car), as permanent damage may result. •  Do not store alkaline batteries in the remote control for extended periods of time. To reduce the chance for battery leakage in the battery compartment, remove the batteries when storing the remote control for more than six months.•  To avoid theft, do not leave your Navigator III in plain sight when you leave your vehicle. Remove the automotive mount from visible sight. Do not keep your unit in the glove compartment; thieves know where to look. Register your product at http://www.garmin.com/registration; this may help in the event your unit is stolen.
