included with the kit.

of this device for an application other than those listed in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless
prior approval is obtained from the Air Resources Board.

This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the device may have on any
warranty either expressed or implied by the vehicle‘s manufacturer.
