The following is a list of recommended practices for the installation and operation of your light.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO
THE PRODUCT OR VEHICLE AND/OR SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR DEATH TO YOU AND YOUR PASSENGERS
•
Mounting the light in any orientation other than vertically (i.e. base down and lens/dome up), is not advisable.
Doing so may void the warranty.
•
Proper installation of this product requires the installer to have a good understanding of automotive electronics,
systems and procedures. You may need to consult a professional for installation.
•
SWS Warning Systems Inc. recommends the use of waterproof butt splices and/or connectors for all electrical
connections. It is recommended that the good dielectric grease be used on all connections where possible.
•
SWS Warning Systems Inc. does not recommend leaving a magnetically mounted light on a vehicle while the
vehicle is in motion. The owner does so at their own risk.
•
If mounting this product requires drilling holes, the installer MUST be sure that no vehicle components or other
vital parts could be damaged by the drilling process. Also de-burr the holes and remove any metal shards or
remnants. Grommets are recommended for all wire holes.
•
Do not mount the light close to antennae or radio equipment, as they may cause electromagnetic interference.
After installation of the light, it is necessary to test all electronic equipment simultaneously to ensure that they
operate free of interference from other components within the vehicle.
•
Never power emergency warning equipment from the same circuit or share the same grounding circuit with
radio communication equipment.
•
Do not install this product or route any wires in the deployment area of your air bag or areas that interfere with
the operation of the vehicle. Refer to your vehicle owner's manual for the air bag deployment area and
recommended mounting areas for warning lights and other equipment.
•
Do not attempt to activate or control the device with the vehicle in motion or in a hazardous driving
environment. The vehicle should be stopped and in park before control of the light is attempted.

Do not stare directly into these lights. Momentary blindness and/or eye damage could result.

Use only soap and water to clean the product. Use of other chemicals could result in degradation and
discolouration of the lens.
