with FCC or in Canada the CRTC regulation and
should be installed only by a qualified technician.NOTE: Mobile communications systems may harm
the operation of your vehicle, particularly if they are
not properly designed for automotive use or are not
properly installed. For example, when operated, such

addition, such systems may themselves be damaged or
their operation affected by operating your vehicle.
