Testing the System
LIGHT HAZARD: 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.
SOUND HAZARD: All effective sirens and horns produce loud sounds (120 dB) that may cause
permanent hearing loss. Always minimize your exposure to siren sound and wear hearing
protection. Do not sound the siren indoors or in enclosed areas where you and others will be
exposed to the sound.
After the installation, test the emergency warning system to ensure that it is operating properly.
Also test all vehicle functions, including horn operation, vehicle safety functions, and vehicle lighting
systems to ensure proper operation. Ensure that the installation has not affected the vehicle operation
or changed any vehicle safety functions or circuits. After testing is complete, provide a copy of these
instructions to the instructional staff and all operating personnel.
Cleaning the Plastic Lenses
CRAZING/CLEANING SOLUTIONS: Cleaning solutions, such as strong detergents, solvents,
and petroleum products, can cause crazing (cracking) of the light bar lens and reflectors. To
clean the reflectors, use a soft, damp cloth. To clean the lens, use a soft cloth and a solution of
water and a mild detergent.
CRAZING/CHEMICALS: Crazed, cracked or faded lenses or reflectors reduce the light output
and the effectiveness of the lighting system. A lens or reflectors showing this type of aging
must be replaced. Failure to follow this warning may result in bodily injury or death.
1.
Rinse the lenses with lukewarm water to loosen dirt and debris.
2.
Use a mild soap, lukewarm water, and a soft cloth to gently clean the lenses. To avoid damaging the
lens, do not use heavy pressure or caustic, abrasive, or petroleum-based cleaners.
3.
Rinse and dry the lenses with a soft cloth to prevent water spotting.
4.
To remove fine scratches and haze, use a specialty plastic cleaner/polish and a soft cloth. You can
also use a high quality automotive paste cleaner/wax that is non-abrasive.
