WARNING
■Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in a loss of vehi cle control and cause death or serious injury.
●Use tires of the specified size.
●Maintain the recommended level of air pressure.
●Do not drive in excess of 75 mph (120 km/h ), regardless of the type of snow tires
being used.
●Use snow tires on all, not just some wheels.
●Do not use LKA (Lane Keeping Assist) system.
■Driving with tire chains (excep t vehicles with 18-inch tires)
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely, and may
cause death or serious injury.
●Do not drive in excess of the speed limit specified for the ti re chains being used, or 30
mph (50 km/h), whichever is lower.
●Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces or over potholes.
●Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shifting operations
that cause sudden engine braking.

NOTE:
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not caus e harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, includ ing interference that may cause undesired
operation.
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux
appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions
suivantes : (1) l'appa reil ne doit pas produire de brouillag e, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil
doit accepter tout br ouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible
d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
FCC WARNING:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
CAUTION:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation ex posure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines. This equip-
ment should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20cm or more away
from person’s body.
This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment and meets RSS-102 of the IC ra dio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This
equipment should be in stalled and operated keeping the radiator at least 20cm or more

Co-Location:
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
Under Industry Canada regula tions, this radio transmitter may only operate using an
antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) ga in approved for the transmitter by Industry
Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its
gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated po wer (e.i.r.p.) is not
more than that necessary fo r successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut
fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé
pour l’émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage
radioélectrique à l’intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son
gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas
l’intensité nécessaire à l’établisseme nt d’une communication satisfaisante.
