SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION

If the driver of the vehicle is distracted, this may lead to an accident or injury. Operating the

ZENEC system can distract attention from the general traffic situation! Equally, connecting, changing or inserting data media can distract the driver from the general traffic situation.

CAUTION

Always choose loudspeaker settings such that acoustic signals coming from outside can always be heard in the vehicle (e.g. signal horns or sirens).

CAUTION

Incorrect installation or commissioning of the ZENEC system may cause damage to the ZENEC system or to the vehicle electronics. Only let qualified specialists authorized by ZENEC install the device.

CAUTION

This ZENEC system is intended solely for operation at an on-board voltage of 12 V DC. Operating the ZENEC system at any other voltage can cause damage to the ZENEC system or to the vehicles electrical system.

CAUTION

Taking apart or modifying the ZENEC system can result in damage to the device or the vehicle. Opening the device or modification by a person not authorized by ZENEC will render warranty claims null and void.

In the event of a malfunction or defect please contact an authorized ZENEC dealer. Unauthorized repairs will render warranty claims null and void.

CAUTION

The connection and charging leads of external mobile devices can get in the way of the driver.

Please run these so that the driver's freedom of movement is not hindered.

CAUTION

Route recommendations and displayed traffic signs on the ZENEC system may differ from the real situation. Traffic signs and traffic regulations have precedence over route recommendations and indications of the ZENEC systems.

Speed data displayed in the navigation system corresponds to the permitted speed limit. Please adjust your speed and driving behavior to the prevailing visibility, weather, road, and traffic conditions.

NOTE

The ZENEC system supports functions like multi-function steering wheel, display of air conditioning settings or optical parking system and multi-function display support. All of them are in dependence to the vehicle and can only be used, when they are provided by the vehicle.

TURN ON / OFF

Manual On / Off Z-E2050

Press the knob (fig. S/7 ), to turn the ZENEC system on, press and hold the button to switch off the device.

Automatic On / Off

The device automatically switches on/off by CAN bus interface ignition signal.

Switching on the ignition will activate the ZENEC system. The boot process can take up to 30sec.

This may result in some delay until the system is ready. The ZENEC system is shut down by switching off the ignition, or removing the ignition key.

ANTI-THEFT PROTECTION

The ZENEC system is equipped with an anti-theft protection function. If this is active, on restarting the ZENEC system after interruption of the power supply you will be asked to enter your password.

To change the password:

Device User Manual → Setup → System Setup → Password

NOTE

Keep your password safe. If the password is lost the ZENEC system must be uninstalled, and sent back in to ZENEC Service to unblock the anti-theft protection. This service is not free!
