School Zone Alerts on Automotive Devices

There may be times when you will see a School Zone alert display on your device even when it is not during school zone hours.

A Yellow School Zone Icon Will Display on the Map and Provide an Audible Chime Under the Following Circumstances:

  • During the posted school zone hours, if those hours are known. This information is included in the map data.

  • Weekdays between 7 am and 5 pm if specific school zone hours are not known and therefore not included in the map data.

Currently, not all school zone hours are listed for known school zones. School Zone alerts are available in some locations in the US and Canada.

It is possible to disable visual alerts to school zones; however, the device may still provide an audible chime when approaching a school zone.


To Disable Visual School Zone Alerts:

  1. On the main page, touch Settings
  2. Touch Driver Assistance
  3. Touch Driver Alerts or Rider Alerts
  4. Touch the box next to Schools to remove the checkmark
  5. Touch OK to save this setting

The device will no longer provide visual alerts of upcoming school zones.
