Safety Messages 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 eective 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 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 dierent manufacturers may reduce

the warning eectiveness of the lighting system and may

damage the components. You should verify or test your

combination to ensure that the system works together and

meets federal, state and local standards or guidelines.

Safety Messages

Electrical Hazards

• Strobe systems present a shock hazard because they

use high voltage to operate. Do not handle strobe cables,

the power supply, or bulbs or remove the lens while the

equipment is connected. Strobe systems can also hold

their charge even after they have been turned o. After

disconnecting power to the unit, wait ﬁve minutes before

handling any parts of the strobe system.

• A light system is a high current system. 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 to

handle the device and system amperage requirements.

• Never attempt to install aftermarket equipment that connects

to the vehicle wiring without reviewing a vehicle wiring

diagram available from the vehicle manufacturer. Ensure that

your installation will not aect vehicle operation or mandated

safety functions or circuits. Always check the vehicle for

proper operation after installation.

• The lighting system components, especially light bulbs,

strobe tubes, LEDs, and the outer housing, get hot during

operation. Disconnect power to the system and allow the

system to cool down before handling any components of the

system.

• Halogen light bulbs and strobe tubes are pressurized and,

if broken, can burst and result in ﬂying glass. Always wear

gloves and eye protection when handling these components.

• Do not mount a radio antenna within 18 inches (45.7 cm)

of the lighting system. Placing the antenna too close to

the lighting system could cause the lighting system to

malfunction or be damaged by strong radio ﬁelds. Mounting

the antenna too close to the lighting system may also cause

Safety Messages

the radio noise emitted from the lighting system to interfere

with the reception of the radio transmitter and reduce radio

reception.

• Do not attempt to wash any unsealed electrical device while it

is connected to its power source.

During Installation and Service

• DO NOT get metal shavings inside the product. Metal

shavings in the product can cause the system to fail. If drilling

must be done near the unit, place an ESD-approved cover

over the unit. Inspect the unit after mounting to ensure that

there are no shavings present in or near the unit.

• DO NOT connect this system to the vehicle battery until

ALL other electrical connections are made, mounting of

all components is complete, and you have veriﬁed that no

shorts exist. If the wiring is shorted to the vehicle body or

frame, high current conductors can cause hazardous sparks

resulting in electrical ﬁres or ﬂying molten metal.

• DO NOT install equipment or route wiring (or the plug-in

cord) in the deployment path of an air bag.

• If a vehicle seat is temporarily removed, verify with the

vehicle manufacturer, if the seat needs to be recalibrated for

proper airbag deployment.

• Before mounting any components, check the manual to

make sure that the component you are installing is suitable

for use in that area of the vehicle. Many components are not

suitable for use in the engine compartment or other extreme

environmental exposure areas.

• Before drilling into a vehicle structure, ensure that both

sides of the surface are clear of anything that could be

damaged. Remove all burrs from drilled holes. To prevent

electrical shorts, grommet all drilled holes through which

wiring passes. Ensure that the mounting screws do not cause

electrical or mechanical damage to the vehicle.

Safety Messages

• Refer to the manual packed with the lighting system for

proper electrical connections, additional precautions and

information.

• Locate the light system controls so the VEHICLE and

CONTROLS can be operated safely under all driving

conditions.

After Installation or Service

• After installation, test the light system to ensure that it is

operating properly.

• Test all vehicle functions, including horn operation, vehicle

safety functions and vehicle light systems, to ensure proper

operation. Ensure that the installation has not aected the

vehicle operation or changed any vehicle safety function or

circuit.

• Scratched or dull reﬂectors, mirrors, or lenses will reduce

the eectiveness of the lighting system. Avoid heavy

pressure and use of caustic or petroleum-based products

when cleaning the lighting system. Replace any optical

components that may have been scratched or crazed during

system installation.

• Do not attempt to activate or deactivate the light system

controls while driving in a hazardous situation.

• Frequently inspect the light system to ensure that it is

operating properly and that it is securely attached to the

vehicle.

• After installation and testing are complete, provide a copy

of these instructions to instructional sta and all operating

personnel.

• File these instructions in a safe place and refer to them when

maintaining and/or re-installing the product.

Failure to follow all safety precautions and instructions may

result in property damage, serious injury, or death.

Safety Messages

Safety Message to Operators of Warning Lights

People’s lives depend on your safe use of our products. Listed

below are some important safety instructions and precautions

you should follow:

• Do not attempt to activate or deactivate the light system

control while driving in a hazardous situation.

• Although your warning system is operating properly, it

may not be completely eective. People may not see or

heed your warning signal. You must recognize this fact and

continue to drive cautiously.

• Situations may occur that obstruct your warning signal when

natural and man-made objects are between your vehicle

and others, such as raising your hood or trunk lid. If these

situations occur, be especially careful.

• All eective sirens and horns produce loud sounds that may

cause, in certain situations, permanent hearing loss. You and

your passengers should consider taking appropriate safety

precautions such as wearing hearing protection.

• To be an eective 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.

• The eectiveness of an interior mounted warning light

depends on the clarity, the tinting, and the angle of the glass

it is being placed behind. Tinting, dirt, defects and steeply

angled glass reduce the light output of the warning light. This

may reduce the eectiveness of the light as a warning signal.

If your vehicle has dirty, tinted, or steeply angled glass, use

extra caution when driving your vehicle or blocking the right

of way with your vehicle.

• It is important that you fully understand how to safely operate

this warning system before use.

• Operate your vehicle and its light/sound system in

accordance with your department’s Standard Operating

Procedures.

• If a selected function does not perform properly or if any

of the lamps remain illuminated when the control is o,

disconnect the power connector from the control unit and

contact the nearest service center.

• At the start of your shift, ensure that the entire warning

light system and the siren system is securely attached and

operating properly.

Failure to follow these safety instructions and precautions may

result in property damage, serious injury, or death.

Unpacking the Product

After unpacking the product, inspect it for damage that may

have occurred in transit. If it has been damaged, do not attempt
