GWARNING
The electromagnetic radiation from two-way
radios can interfere with the vehicle electron-
ics if two-way radios are manipulated or ret-
rofitted incorrectly. This could jeopardize the
operating safety of the vehicle. There is a risk
of an accident.
You should have all work on electrical and
electronic components carried out at a quali-
fied specialist workshop.
GWARNING
If you incorrectly operate two-way radios in
the vehicle, the electromagnetic radiation
may interfere with the vehicle electronics, for
example if:
Rthe two-way radio is not connected to an
exterior antenna
Rthe exterior antenna is not correctly moun-
ted or is not low-reflection
This could jeopardize the operating safety of
the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Have the low-reflection exterior antenna
installed at a qualified specialist workshop.
Always connect two-way radios to the low-
reflection exterior antenna when operating in
the vehicle.
!The operating permit may be invalidated ifthe instructions for installation and use oftwo-way radios are not observed.
In particular, the following conditions must becomplied with:
Ronly approved wavebands may be used.
Robserve the maximum permissible outputin these wavebands.
Ronly approved antenna positions may beused.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiationmay cause damage to your health and the healthof others. Using an exterior antenna takes intoaccount current scientific discussions relatingto the possible health hazards that may resultfrom electromagnetic fields.
