Hazard
Moisture infiltration may lead to corrosion of the control unit for the additional air conditioning pump. This could damage the unit's wiring harness connection over time, possibly leading to short circuits that could cause a fire. Moreover, if the AUTO-REST heating button is activated in the center console after the vehicle has been parked, it could increase the risk of fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
