Servicing the light bar domes includes removing them and inspecting their seals and
hardware to ensure that the domes remain secure and watertight. Inspection also
involves checking the domes for cracks, crazing (hairline cracks), and other defects.
Cleaning the Light Bar Lens or Dome
CRAZING/CLEANING SOLUTIONS: The use of cleaning solutions, such as
strong detergents, solvents, and petroleum products, can cause crazing
(cracking) of the light bar lens and reflectors. To clean the reflectors, use a
soft, damp cloth. To clean the lens, use a soft cloth and a solution of water and
a mild detergent.
CRAZING/CHEMICALS: Crazed, cracked, or faded lenses or reflectors reduce
the light output and the effectiveness of the lighting system. A lens or
reflectors showing this type of aging must be replaced. Failure to follow this
warning may result in bodily injury or death.
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE: Do not use a pressure washer to clean the light bar.
Failure to heed this notice will damage the light bar.
