Operating safety

General notes

G WARNING

Your attention must always be focused on the traffic conditions. Only operate Audio 20 or the telephone when traffic conditions permit. Operation of the audio equipment or the telephone distracts you from the traffic conditions and could cause you to lose control of your vehicle and cause an accident.

Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph (approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle covers a distance of 44 feet (approximately 14 m) every second.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1.This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2.this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

G WARNING

Change or modification not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

! Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

G WARNING

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for uncontrolled

equipment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65.

This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that is deemed to comply without maximum permissive exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is desirable that it should be installed and operated with at least 8 inches (20 cm) and more between the radiator and a person's body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and legs.)

! Electronic devices that you bring into the vehicle yourself can cause significant problems with the radio reception.

Correct use

Always observe the following when using Audio 20:

Rthe safety notes in this manual Rnational road traffic regulations

i Improper work on electronic components or systems (e.g. radio, CD changer) and their software may result in malfunction or failure. Even systems that have not been modified could be affected because the electronic systems are connected. Electronic malfunctions can seriously jeopardize the operational safety of your vehicle.

G WARNING

Modifications performed on electronic components or software can cause malfunctions. The radio, amplifier, CD drive and telephone are linked together.

If one of the components is inoperative or was not properly removed or replaced, the function of the other components may be impaired.

This could considerably compromise the operating safety of your vehicle.

We therefore recommend always having service work on electronic components performed at an authorized Sprinter Dealer.

i Protection against theft: this device is equipped with technical provisions to protect it against theft. Detailed information on protection against theft is available at your authorized Sprinter Dealer.
