and 25A fuse (15A fuse for 24V model). Locate the fuse as near the
battery as possible to protect the entire length of wire.

SAFETY MESSAGE TO OPERATORS
Peoples’ lives depend on your safe use of our
products. Listed below are some important safety
instructions and precautions you should follow:
•
Although your warning system is operating
properly, it may not be completely effective.
People may not see or heed your warning sig-
nal. You must recognize this fact and continue
driving cautiously.
•
Also, situations may occur which obstruct your
warning signal when natural or man-made
objects are between your vehicle and others,
such as: raising your hood or trunk lid. If these
situations occur, be especially careful.
•
This product contains high intensity LED de-
vices. To prevent permanent eye damage, DO
NOT stare into the light beam at close range.
•
At the start of your shift, you should ensure
that the light is securely attached and all
lamps are operating properly.
•
If a selected function does not perform prop-
erly 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.
Failure to follow these safety precautions may result
in property damage, serious injury, or death to you, to pas-
sengers, or to others.

V. MAINTENANCE.
A.
General.
Crazing (cracking) of lenses will cause reduced ef-
fectiveness of the light. Do not use cleaning agents
(which will cause crazing) such as strong deter-
gents, solvents, or petroleum products. If crazing of
lenses does occur, reliability of light for emergency
signalling purposes may be reduced until lenses
are replaced.
Ordinary cleaning of the plastic lenses can be accom-
plished by using mild soap and a soft rag. Should fine scratches
or a haze appear on a lens, they can ordinarily be removed with a
non-abrasive, high quality, one-step, automotive paste cleaner/wax
and a soft cloth.
