IMPORTANT! Read all instructions before installing and using.  Installer: This manual must be delivered to the end user.

WARNING!

Failure to install or use this product according to manufacturer’s recommendations may result in property damage, serious injury, and/

or death to those you are seeking to protect!

Do not install and/or operate this safety product unless you have read and understood the safety information 

contained in this manual.

1.  Proper installation combined with operator training in the use, care, and maintenance of emergency warning devices are essential to 

ensure the safety of emergency personnel and the public.

2.  Emergency warning devices often require high electrical voltages and/or currents. Exercise caution when working with live electrical 

connections.

3.  This product must be properly grounded. Inadequate grounding and/or shorting of electrical connections can cause high current arcing, 

which can cause personal injury and/or severe vehicle damage, including fire. 

4.  Proper placement and installation is vital to the performance of this warning device. Install this product so that output performance of 

the system is maximized and the controls are placed within convenient reach of the operator so that they can operate the system without 

losing eye contact with the roadway.

5.  Do not install this product or route any wires in the deployment area of an air bag.  Equipment mounted or located in an air bag 

deployment area may reduce the effectiveness of the air bag or become a projectile that could cause serious personal injury or death.  

Refer to the vehicle owner’s manual for the air bag deployment area.  It is the responsibility of the user/operator to determine a suitable 

mounting location ensuring the safety of all passengers inside the vehicle particularly avoiding areas of potential head impact.

6.  It is the responsibility of the vehicle operator to ensure daily that all features of this product work correctly. In use, the vehicle operator 

should ensure the projection of the warning signal is not blocked by vehicle components (i.e., open trunks or compartment doors), 

people, vehicles or other obstructions.

7.  The use of this or any other warning device does not ensure all drivers can or will observe or react to an emergency warning signal. 

Never take the right-of-way for granted. It is the vehicle operator’s responsibility to be sure they can proceed safely before entering an 

intersection, drive against traffic, respond at a high rate of speed, or walk on or around traffic lanes.

8.  This equipment is intended for use by authorized personnel only. The user is responsible for understanding and obeying all laws 

regarding emergency warning devices. Therefore, the user should check all applicable city, state, and federal laws and regulations. The 

manufacturer assumes no liability for any loss resulting from the use of this warning device.
