Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, mainte-
nance, or use can cause explosion, fire, electrical shock or
other conditions which may cause personal injury or property

fied installer or agency must use factory-authorized kits or
accessories when modifying this product. Refer to the indi-
vidual instructions packaged with the kits or accessories
