Safety Messages for 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.
• In order 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.
• It is important that you fully understand how to safely operate this warning system
before use.
• Operate your vehicle and its light/sound system in accordance with your
department’s Standard Operating Procedures.
• If a selected function does not perform properly or if any of the lamps remain
illuminated when the control is off, disconnect the power connector from the
control unit and contact the nearest service center.
• At the start of your shift, ensure that the entire warning light system and the siren
system are securely attached and operating properly.
Failure to follow these precautions may result in property damage, serious injury, or
death.
