Hazard

The electrical compressor may fail, causing the HVAC system to enter a failsafe mode that suspends the heater operation of the system and affects defroster function. If the vehicle is operated in low-temperatures, the defrosting performance reduces and may not remove frost, ice and/or fog from the windshield glass. This can reduce driver visibility and increase the risk of injuries. 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.
