Safety Message to Installers and Service Personnel of Warning Light
Equipment
People's lives depend on your proper installation and servicing of Federal Signal
products. It is important to read and follow all instructions shipped with this
product. Listed below are some other important safety instructions and precautions
you should follow.
Before Installation or Service
Qualifications
• To properly install or service this equipment, you must have a good
understanding of automotive mechanical and electrical procedures and
systems, along with proficiency in the installation and service of safety warning
equipment. Always refer to the vehicle service manuals when performing
equipment installations on a vehicle.
Light Hazards
• 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.
• Do not install the light system in an area that would block, impair, or blind
the driver's vision. Ensure that the light system is mounted in a position that
is outside of the driver's field of vision, so the driver can safely operate the
vehicle.
• Federal Signal power supplies and light heads are designed to work together
as a system. Combining light heads and a power supply from different
manufacturers may reduce the warning effectiveness of the lighting system
and may damage the components. Verify or test your combination to ensure
that the system works together and meets federal, state, and local standards or
guidelines.
Electrical Hazards
• A light system is a high current system. In order for the system to function
properly, a separate negative (–) connection and positive (+) connection must
be made. All negative connections should be connected to the negative battery
terminal, and a suitable fuse should be installed on the positive battery terminal
connection as close to the battery as possible. Ensure that all wires and fuses
are rated correctly to handle the device and system amperage requirements.
