-    <command>unit_root_vars</command> is now deprecated and will result in no action, It was used to declare unit-root variables of a model so that a diffuse prior can be used in the initialization of the Kalman filter for these variables only. For stationary variables, the unconditional covariance matrix of these variables is used for initialization. The algorithm to compute a true diffuse prior is taken from <xref linkend="durbin-koopman_2001"/> and <xref linkend="koopman-durbin_2003"/>.
+    <command>unit_root_vars</command> is used to declare a list of unit-root endogenous variables of a model so that dynare won't check the steady state levels (defined in the steadystate file) file for these variables. The information given by this command is no more used for the initialization of the diffuse kalman filter (as described in <xref linkend="durbin-koopman_2001"/> and <xref linkend="koopman-durbin_2003"/>).
