CAUTION

• The installation of the XZENT system should be carried out by an authorized installer. Specific knowledge and tools are required to do the installation. Incorrect installation can cause damage to the vehicle and the XZENT system.
• Correct functioning can only be guaranteed when you use the XZENT original accessories included in the kit or optionally available. The XZENT system and the original accessories must under no circumstance be modified or altered in any way. Inappropriate actions can cause damage to the vehicle and the XZENT system.

NOTE
