Central electronic module (CEM), replacing

Exposing and removing relay box in passenger compartment

CAUTION: The customer-programmed data must be read off before the control module is replaced. The information must then be entered into the new control module after it has been installed. This is performed via VIDA vehicle communication.

NOTE:
