SAFETY MESSAGE TO INSTALLERS
People's lives depend on your safe installation
of our products. It is important to read, understand and
follow all instructions shipped with the products. In
addition, listed below are some other important safety
instructions and precautions you should follow:
• To properly install the speaker: you must have
a good understanding of automotive electrical
procedures and systems, along with proficiency in the
installation and use of safety warning equipment.
• When drilling into a vehicle structure, be sure
that both sides of the surface are clear of anything that
could be damaged.
• Sound propagation and warning effectiveness
will be severely reduced if the speaker projector is not
facing forward. Carefully follow the installation
instructions and always install the speaker with the
projector facing forward.
• Optimum sound propagation will be severely
reduced if any objects are in front of speaker. You
should ensure that front of speaker is clear of any
obstructions.
• All effective sirens produce loud sounds which
may cause, in certain situations, permanent hearing
loss. You should take appropriate precautions such as
wearing hearing protection.
• Install the speaker in a location which provides
maximum signalling effectiveness and minimizes the
sound reaching the vehicle's occupants.
• Inspect the mounting system periodically to
ensure it is in good condition.
• After installation and testing are complete,
provide a copy of this instruction sheet to all operating
personnel.
• File these instructions in a safe place and refer
to them when maintaining and/or reinstalling the

Failure to follow all safety precautions and
instructions may result in property damage, serious
injury, or death to you or others.

D. INSTALLATION.
The installation procedure in paragraph D.1. may
not apply to all vehicles. Some vehicle specific
instructions are included below. Before proceeding,
check to see if instructions for your vehicle are included.
Otherwise, use the procedure in paragraph D.1.
1. General.
The supplied bracket is designed for mounting
directly on a surface which has been determined to be
suitable for speaker installation. In addition, it may be used
to install the speaker on an adapter bracket fabricated by
the installer.
The bracket has two sets of speaker mounting
holes. Use the outer pair of holes when mounting on a
horizontal surface. Use the inner pair of holes when
mounting on a vertical surface. When using the inner pair
of holes (vertical surface mounting), space restrictions may
require removal of the excess bracket material that
protrudes in front of the speaker.
Because of the variety of vehicles and possible
mounting arrangements, installation details and
mounting bracket fabrication must be determined by
the installer.
