Federal Signal Corporation Pathfinder Installation And Maintenance Instructions Manual page 7

• Do NOT install equipment or route wiring or cord in the deployment path of an airbag.
• If a vehicle seat is temporarily removed, verify with the vehicle manufacturer if the seat needs to
be recalibrated for proper airbag deployment.
• Locate the control head so the vehicle, controls, and microphone can be operated safely.
• When drilling into a vehicle structure, be sure that both sides of the surface are clear of anything
that could be damaged. All drilled holes should be deburred and all sharp edges should be
smoothed. All wires going through drilled holes should be protected by a grommet or convolute/
split-loom tubing. Additionally, all exterior drilled holes must be sealed with Motorcraft seam
sealer T-A-2-B or equivalent to prevent the potential exposure to carbon monoxide or other
potentially harmful fumes. Failure to observe this warning could cause serious injury or death.
After Installation
• After installation, test the siren and 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 installation has not affected vehicle operation or
changed any vehicle safety function or circuit.
• After testing is complete, provide a copy of these instructions to the instructional staff and all
operating personnel.
• File these instructions in a safe place and refer to them when maintaining or reinstalling the
product.
Failure to follow all safety precautions and instructions may result in property damage, serious injury,
or death.
