NOTICE
● Do not remove such components as
the front bumper, hood or suspension,
or replace them with non-genuine
parts, as doing so may prevent the sys-
tem from operating properly.
● Do not install anything to the front
bumper or hood, as doing so may pre-
vent the sensors from detecting an
impact correctly and prevent the sys-
tem from operating properly.
● Do not close the hood with force or
apply load to the lifters, as doing so
may damage the lifters and prevent
the system from operating properly.
● Do not modify the suspension, as
changes made to the vehicle height
may prevent the system from operat-
ing properly.
