• Mobile communications systems may
harm the operation of your vehicle,
particularly if they are not properly
designed for automotive use.
• To avoid interference with other vehicle
functions, such as anti-lock braking
systems, amateur radio users who
install radios and antennas onto their
vehicle should not locate the amateur
radio antennas in the area of the
driver's side hood.
• Any non-Ford custom electrical or
electronic accessories or components
that are added to the vehicle by the
authorized dealer or the owner, may
adversely affect battery performance
and durability, and may also adversely
affect the performance of other
electrical systems in the vehicle.
