<strong>WARNING</strong><br />
<strong>Ramsey</strong> offers mounting kits and winches for various vehicles. In crash tests on a limited number<br />
of automotive manufacturer's vehicles, winches/mounting kits, which have been properly<br />
mounted, have not interfered with air bag operation.<br />
The user/customer, or their installer, must verify that the mounting kit does not interfere with the<br />
factory air bag sensors, which must not be relocated or modified in any way.<br />
The user/customer should follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations and those of a<br />
qualified mechanic to determine if the winch/mounting kit might interfere with the air bag<br />
operation. The user/customer should then determine the suitability of a winch/mounting kit on a<br />
particular vehicle.<br />
PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE'S AIR BAG SYSTEM MAY NOT OPERATE<br />
PROPERLY IF THE WINCH/MOUNTING KIT IS NOT MOUNTED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE<br />
VEHICLE MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDATIONS.<br />
DO NOT ATTACH TOW HOOK TO ANY PART OF MOUNTING KIT UNLESS INSTRUCTED TO<br />
DO SO.<br />
DO NOT SUBSTITUTE ATTACHING HARDWARE ITEMS (BOLTS, NUTS, OR WASHERS).<br />
