We show that the mixing effect of the neutral gauge bosons in the 3-3-1-1 model comes from two sources. The first one is due to the 3-3-1-1 gauge symmetry breaking as usual, whereas the second one results from the kinetic mixing between the gauge bosons of U(1)_X and U(1)_N groups, which are used to determine the electric charge and baryon minus lepton numbers, respectively. Such mixings modify the rho-parameter and the known couplings of Z with fermions. The constraints that arise from flavor-changing neutral currents due to the gauge boson mixings and non-universal fermion generations are also given.
