WARNING
The electromagnetic radiation from modi-
fied or incorrectly retrofitted RF-trans-
mitters can interfere with the vehicle
electronics. This can compromise the
operational safety of the vehicle. There is
a risk of an accident.
You should have all work to electrical and
electronic equipment carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop.

WARNING
The electromagnetic radiation from incor-
rectly operated RF transmitters can inter-
fere with the vehicle electronics, for
example:
if the RF transmitter is not connected
R
with an exterior antenna
the exterior antenna has been installed
R
incorrectly or is not a low-reflection
type
This can compromise the operational safety
of the vehicle. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
Have the low-reflection exterior antenna
mounted at a qualified specialist work-
shop. When operating RF transmitters in
the vehicle, always connect them with the
low-reflection exterior antenna.
!
The operating permit may be invalidated
if the instructions for installation and use
of RF transmitters are not observed.
In particular, the following conditions
must be complied with:
only approved wavebands may be used.
R
compliance with the maximum permissi-
R
ble output in these wavebands is
required.
only approved antenna positions may be
R
used.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radia-
tion may cause damage to your health and the
health of others. Using an exterior antenna
takes into account current scientific discus-
sions relating to the possible health hazards
that may result from electromagnetic fields.
The following antenna positions may be used
if RF transmitters have been properly instal-
led:
