Qualified workshops will be able to inform you about options for installing and operating radio transmitters.

Any such equipment must carry the mark. Any retrofit equipment that could influence the driver's control of the vehicle must have a type approval for road vehicles and must carry the e mark.
WARNING!
  • Loose or incorrectly secured radio equipment could be catapulted through the vehicle during sudden driving/braking manoeuvres or in the event of an accident. This poses a risk of injury to occupants.
  • Always ensure that radio equipment is properly secured outside the deployment area of the airbags or stowed safely while the vehicle is moving.
  • Mobile telephones or radio equipment which are operated inside the vehicle without a correctly installed external aerial can create excessive magnetic fields that could cause a health hazard.
Caution!
If you use radio equipment in the car without an external aerial, the electromagnetic radiation in the vehicle could exceed the recommended limits. This also applies to external aerials which have not been correctly installed.
  • Do not operate radio equipment in the vehicle unless an external aerial is properly connected.
Note
Please observe the relevant regulations and follow the instructions in the operating manual for the radio equipment.
