NOTICE
Incorrect line routing
•

Risk of damage to lines and hoses

•

Malfunction and fault memory entry on control unit



Avoid small bending radii when routing lines.



File down edges and burrs in the routing area or mask them with adhesive tape.



Maintain a sufficient distance from components exposed to high temperatures while driving.
