WARNING Risk of accident due to
improper workon two-w ayradios
The elect romagnetic radiation from two-w ay
ra dios can inter fere with the on-board elec‐ tronics if RF transmit
ters are manipulated or
re trofitted inco rrectly.
This could jeopardise the operating saf ety of
th eve hicle. #
You should ha veall workon electrical
and electronic components car ried out
at a qualified specialist workshop. &
WARNING Risk of accident from incor‐
re ct ope ration of two-w ayradios
If yo u operate two- wayra dios inco rrectly in
th eve hicle, the electromagnetic radiation
could inter fere with the on-board electronics,
e.g.:
R ifth e two-w ayradio is not connec tedto
an exterior aerial
R ifth eex terior aerial is not cor rectly
mounted or is not of low reflection
This could jeopardise the operating saf ety of
th eve hicle. #

Rear wings
On there ar wings, it is recommended that you

trofitting two-w ayradios. Comply with the
legal requirements for de tach able parts.
If yo ur vehicle has fittings for two-w ayradio
equipment, use the po wer supp lyand aerial con‐
nec tors prov ided in the pre-ins tallation. Be sure
to obser vethe manufacturer's supplements
when fitting.
