Installation of mobile communication systems
The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) regulates the use of
mobile communication systems such as two-way radios, telephones and
anti-theft alarms that are equipped with radio transmitters. If you install
this equipment in your vehicle, you should comply with those rules. All
Ford Motor Company vehicles are in compliance with FCC regulations
(CFR 47 Part 15) and SAE J551d for radiated electromagnetic emissions.
Mobile communication systems not designed for automotive use or not
properly installed, may cause the engine to stumble, stall or affect
electronically controlled transmission operation. In addition, such
systems themselves may be damaged or their operation affected by the
normal operating conditions of your vehicle. Citizen Band (CB)
transceivers, garage door openers, and other electrical transmitters
whose power output of 5 watts or less, will not ordinarily affect your
vehicle’s operation.
Mobile communication systems may harm the operation of your
vehicle, particularly if they are not designed for automotive use
or are not properly installed.
Ford Motor Company has no control over the installation, design
or manufacture of mobile communication systems. Ford Motor
Company cannot assume responsibility for any adverse effects or
damages that may result if this type of equipment is used.
Malfunction of aftermarket electronic equipment should be resolved by
the equipment manufacturer.
