Safety Message to Operators of Warning Lights
People’s lives depend on your safe use of our products. Listed
below are some important safety instructions and precautions
you should follow:
• Do not attempt to activate or deactivate the light system
control while driving in a hazardous situation.
• Although your warning system is operating properly, it
may not be completely effective. People may not see or
heed your warning signal. You must recognize this fact and
continue to drive cautiously.
• Situations may occur that obstruct your warning signal when
natural and man-made objects are between your vehicle
and others, such as raising your hood or trunk lid. If these
situations occur, be especially careful.
• All effective sirens and horns produce loud sounds that may
cause, in certain situations, permanent hearing loss. You and
your passengers should consider taking appropriate safety
precautions such as wearing hearing protection.
• To be an effective warning device, this product produces
bright light that can be hazardous to your eyesight when
viewed at a close range. Do not stare directly into this
lighting product at a close range, or permanent damage to
your eyesight may occur.
• The effectiveness of an interior mounted warning light
depends on the clarity, the tinting, and the angle of the glass
it is being placed behind. Tinting, dirt, defects and steeply
angled glass reduce the light output of the warning light. This
may reduce the effectiveness of the light as a warning signal.
If your vehicle has dirty, tinted, or steeply angled glass, use
extra caution when driving your vehicle or blocking the right
of way with your vehicle.
• It is important that you fully understand how to safely operate
this warning system before use.
