Danger:
Fire
The product poses a risk of fire because the earthing wire for the electric heating element of the additional air heating can be incorrectly screwed into place. An incorrectly secured earthing wire may cause overheating (the wire overheats in the cable connection area) and, in the worst-case scenario, it may set the vehicle on fire.
