  • Page 8: System Overview

    System Overview The ZeroRPM ClimateGuard is designed to keep a canine officer safe from heat exhaustion by alerting the handler of unsafe temperature levels through several methods. These include a pager system and an inside-the-vehicle voice annunciator, along with honking the horn and flashing the emergency lights and wig-wags. Simultaneously, the rear windows are automatically rolled down and a fan is turned on to cool the canine officer.
