Any such equipment installed in your
vehicle should comply with Federal

and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission
(CRTC) regulations and should be
installed only by an authorized dealer.

•

An authorized dealer needs to install
mobile communications systems.
Improper installation may harm the
operation of your vehicle, particularly
if the manufacturer did not design the
mobile communication system
specifically for automotive use.

•

If you or an authorized Ford dealer add
any non-Ford electrical or electronic
accessories or components to your
vehicle, you may adversely affect
battery performance and durability. In
addition, you may also adversely affect
the performance of other electrical
systems in the vehicle.
