WARNING!

 

Failure to install or use this product according to manufacturer’s recommendations may result in property

damage, serious bodily/personal injury, and/or death to you and those you are seeking to protect!  

!

Do not install and/or operate this safety product unless you have read and understand 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 s/he can operate the system

     without losing eye contact with the roadway.

5.  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.

6.  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 your responsibility to be sure you can proceed safely before entering an intersection, drive 

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

7.  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.

8.  This product may contain high intensity LEDs staring directly into these lights could result in temporary and/or permanent vision

     impairment.

Installation & Mounting:

Mounting

Before proceeding with installation, plan all wiring and cable routing.  Select the mounting location for the lightbar on a flat, smooth surface 

and center the unit across the width of the vehicle.  The mounting location for the lightbar should be chosen such that the lightbar is level and 

visibility to approaching traffic is optimized.

            

          

 Caution: 

When drilling into any vehicle surface, make sure that the area is free from any electrical wires, fuel lines, vehicle upholstery, vehicle 

support members, etc. that could be damaged.
