Imprope rinstallation of RF transmitters can
lead to increase delec tromagnetic radiation in

takes into account current scientifi cdiscus-

that may result from electromagnetic fields.
To ensure proper installation, Merc edes-Benz
recommends having this work done at a
Mercedes-Ben zServ iceC entre or at another
qualified specialist workshop.
Deviations with respect to aeria llocations,
