Electrical Hazards
• Strobe systems present a shock hazard because they
use high voltage to operate. Do not handle strobe cables,
the power supply, or bulbs or remove the lens while the
equipment is connected. Strobe systems can also hold
their charge even after they have been turned off. After
disconnecting power to the unit, wait five minutes before
handling any parts of the strobe system.
• A light system is a high current system. For the system
to function properly, a separate negative (–) connection
and positive (+) connection must be made. All negative
connections should be connected to the negative battery
terminal, and a suitable fuse should be installed on the
positive battery terminal connection as close to the battery
as possible. Ensure that all wires and fuses are rated to
handle the device and system amperage requirements.
• Never attempt to install aftermarket equipment that connects
to the vehicle wiring without reviewing a vehicle wiring
diagram available from the vehicle manufacturer. Ensure that
your installation will not affect vehicle operation or mandated
safety functions or circuits. Always check the vehicle for
proper operation after installation.
• The lighting system components, especially light bulbs,
strobe tubes, LEDs, and the outer housing, get hot during
operation. Disconnect power to the system and allow the
system to cool down before handling any components of the
system.
• Halogen light bulbs and strobe tubes are pressurized and,
if broken, can burst and result in flying glass. Always wear
gloves and eye protection when handling these components.
• Do not mount a radio antenna within 18 inches (45.7 cm)
of the lighting system. Placing the antenna too close to
the lighting system could cause the lighting system to
malfunction or be damaged by strong radio fields. Mounting
the antenna too close to the lighting system may also cause
