MANUAL USE MODES
The section of this manual dedicated to the installation contains information for installers. For this reason we have used technical terms
without providing explanations which would be necessary for end users only.
THE INSTALLATION MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY AUTHORIZED AND SKILLED PERSONNEL ONLY. THE MANUFACTURER IS
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OPERATION SPECIFIED IN THIS MANUAL CARRIED OUT BY UNAUTHORIZED OR UNSKILLED

• RESPONSIBILITY
The installer must carry out workmanlike installations and ensure to the end user the perfect operation of the whole system both with ARAG
components only and other brands' components.
ARAG always recommends using its components to install control systems.
The installer will be held responsible for any malfunction if he decides to use other brands' components even without actually changing the system
parts or harness.
The compatibility check with components and accessories of other manufacturers shall be carried out by the installer.
If the computer or the ARAG components installed together with other brands' components get damaged because of what stated above, no direct
or indirect warranty will be provided.

RISKS AND PROTECTIONS BEFORE ASSEMBLY
All installation works must be done with battery disconnected, using suitable tools and any individual protection equipment
