Chapter 1: Safety Messages for Installers and Operators
• 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, you should ensure that the entire warning light system and the siren system is
securely attached and operating properly.
• Suction cup mounting is for temporary applications only. The unit should be removed from the window
and stored securely when not in use. Temperature changes and sunlight can cause suction cups to lose
holding power. Periodically check the unit to be sure the suction cups have a firm grip on the mounting
surface. An improperly secured light could fall off of the vehicle causing injury and damage.
• The holding power of magnetic mounting systems is dependent upon surface finish, surface flatness, and
thickness of the steel mounting surface. Therefore, to promote proper magnetic mounting:
✔ Mounting surface and magnets must be kept clean, dry, and free of foreign particles that prevent
good surface contact.
✔ Ensure that mounting surface is flat.
✔ A magnet mounting system should not be used on vehicles with vinyl tops.
✔ To prevent sliding of light assembly on mounting surface, quick acceleration and hard stops
should be avoided.
Failure to follow these precautions may result in property damage, serious injury, or death.
