Ecco 5580 Series Assembly, Installation And Operation Instructions

5580 Series - Reflex™ LED Minibars provide a compact
yet powerful warning solution that offers the flexibility of
either permanent, magnet, or vacuum-magnet mounting.
All models feature 12-24 VDC operation and use LED
reflector technology to maximize light output, offering
multiple flash patterns including double, quad quint, rotate
and random. 5587 models have no lens optics, distribut-
ing light directly from the LED reflectors while 5580 &
5585 models feature lenticular lens optics to provide more
diffused light dispersion.

Vacuum-Magnet Mount:
The Vacuum-Magnet Mount feature includes suction cups on the
bottom of the minibar, with a magnet inside of the suction cup, for a
secure, temporary mount. The minibar should be placed in the center
of the roof where the least amount of curvature occurs. Before install-
ing, make sure the mounting surface is clean and there is no debris
on the bottom of the minibar or on the roof of the vehicle, which could
reduce the holding power of the suction cup and magnet. Place and
remove the minibar without sliding to avoid scratching the paint on
the vehicle. After placement, the minibar should adhere firmly to the
surface. If the unit slides or moves easily, a proper installation has not
been obtained. To release the vacuum, lift the tab to release the air-
lock (see Figure 1). To protect the Vacuum-Magnet Mount assembly,
return minibar to the box when not in use. Do not attempt to attach
the minibar to an ice-covered surface.
