Important informationWarrantyThe equipment warranty terms and conditions also apply for new vehicles.
After the expiration of the warranty, a piec e of equipment in need of repair will be 
replaced with a reconditioned, original item with spare part warranty. It is, however, 
a precondition that the housing has  not been damaged and no unauthorised 
attempts have been made  to carry out repairs.
Note
Damage within the meaning of the warranty must not be the result of improper 
handling of the system or from unprofession al repair attempts. It is also essential 
that there is no external damage.Operation of radioThe radio should only be used, if the traffic situation permits it.
The volume settings must be selected in  such a way that audible signals from the 
outside, e.g. a Martins horn from utility vehicles (police cars,  ambulances and fire 
brigade), can be heard at all times.
