The Documentation and Diagnostics CD supports one or more languages. Because

the Documentation and Diagnostics CD does not autorun on some operating

systems, you have to explore the directory of the CD to access the documentation

files. Browse the documentation folder on the CD, locate the appropriate language

subfolder, then open the product folder to the Safety & Comfort Guide.

CD, you must install a licensed operating system, as well as a compatible version
