Accessories

n
When installing accessories, check the following:
• Do not install accessories on the windshield. They can obstruct your view
and delay your reaction to driving conditions.
• Do not install any accessories over areas marked SRS AIRBAG, on the
sides or backs of the front seats, on front or side pillars, or near the side
windows. Accessories installed in these areas may interfere with proper
operation of the vehicle's airbags or may be propelled into your or
another occupant if the airbags deploy.
• Be sure electronic accessories do not overload electrical circuits or
interfere with proper operation of your vehicle.
• Before installing any electronic accessory, have the installer contact a
dealer for assistance. If possible, have a dealer inspect the final
installation.
