SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
For the safety of the installer, vehicle operator, passengers and the community
please observe the following safety precautions.
Failure to follow all safety
precautions and instructions may result in property damage, injury or death.
The LCS600 may be mounted above the dash, below the dash, on a tunnel, or in a
rack with the mounting u-bracket provided. Choose a mounting location convenient
to the operator and away from any air bag deployment areas. Inspect behind
mounting area for clearance. Assure adequate ventilation to prevent overheating.
Consider wire routing and access to connections, as well as microphone bracket
placement. Install mounting bracket to vehicle using 1/4" hardware (not supplied).
Drill two 1/8" size holes, and install microphone clip using the two screws provided
with the clip.
If mounting in a rack or console, make sure that mounting bolts do not enter case more than 1/4".
Electrical Connections
Electrical connections to the unit are made using a removable connector located on
the back. If the unit needs service the connector can be easily removed without
unwiring the connector.
The power supply of the unit must be capable of
delivering peak currents up to 35 amps for adequate
short circuit protection and reliable operation.
The preferred source is directly at the
vehicle battery. The unit has two external
fuses located beneath the wiring harness
connector. The PA/Air Horn is protected
by a 15-Amp fuse and the Control Head is
protected by a 2 amp fuse. The Light
Control feature is internally fused with a 20
amp fuse that is accessible by removing the
cover. A wiring diagram on the next page
shows detail of how to wire the unit to the
vehicle.
!!! WARNING !!!
DO NOT mount in air bag deployment area.
Devices should be mounted only in locations listed in SAE standard J1849.
Controls should be placed within convenient reach of the driver.
Assure clearances before drilling in vehicle.
To prevent internal damage, mounting bolts must not enter case more than 1/4".
Sound levels produced by attached speakers can cause permanent hearing loss.
Never operate this unit without adequate hearing protection for you and others
in the area. (OSHA 1910.95)
