The product is only approved for the applications described in the technical documentation. When using and operating this product, all applicable regulations and laws must be observed.

ETAS products, made available as beta versions or prototypes of firmware, hardware and/or software, are to be used exclusively for testing and evaluation purposes. These products may not have sufficient technical documentation and not fulfill all requirements regarding quality and accuracy for market-released series products. The product performance may therefore differ from the product description. Only use the product under controlled testing and evaluation conditions. Do not use data and results from beta versions without prior and separate verification and validation and do not share them with third parties.

Before commissioning, check whether a Known Issue Report (KIR) is available for the current product version: www.etas.com/kir (Password: KETASIR). Note the information given in the report.

Program codes or program control sequences that are created or changed via ETAS products, as well as all types of data obtained through the use of ETAS products, must be checked for their reliability and suitability prior to use or distribution. Only use these codes or sequences in public areas (e.g. in road traffic) if you have ensured that the application and product settings are safe through testing in self-contained and designated testing environments and circuits.

This ETAS product allows you to influence safety-relevant systems or data (e.g. in motor vehicles, vehicle components and test benches). In the event of a malfunction or a hazardous situation, it must be possible to put the system into a safe state (e.g. emergency stop or emergency operation).
