CONTROLS can be operated safely under all driving conditions.

After Installation or Service

•  After installation, test the light system to ensure that it is 

operating properly.

•  Test all vehicle functions, including horn operation, vehicle 

safety functions and vehicle light systems, to ensure proper 

operation. Ensure that the installation has not affected the

circuit.

•  Scratched or dull reflectors, mirrors or lenses reduces the 

effectiveness of the lighting system. Avoid heavy pressure and 

use of caustic or petroleum-based products when cleaning the 

lighting system. Replace any optical components that may have 

been scratched or crazed during system installation.

•  Do not attempt to activate or deactivate the light system 

controls while driving in a hazardous situation.

•  Frequently inspect the light system to ensure that it is operating 

properly and is securely attached to the vehicle.

•  After installation and testing are complete, provide a copy 

of these instructions to instructional staff and all operating 

personnel.

•  File these instructions in a safe place and refer to them when 

maintaining and/or re-installing the product.

Failure to follow all safety precautions and instructions may result 

in property damage, serious injury, or death.
