Safety Message to Installers 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 and the original 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’s 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.

Electrical Hazards

• A light system is a high current system. In order 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 correctly 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.

• 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 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 verify 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 airbag.

• Before mounting any components, check the manual to ensure 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.

• When 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.

• Refer to the manual packed with the lighting system for proper electrical connections, additional

precautions, and information.

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.

• If a vehicle seat is temporarily removed, verify with the vehicle manufacturer if the seat needs to be

recalibrated for proper airbag deployment.

• Scratched or dull reﬂectors, mirrors, or lenses will reduce the eectiveness of the lighting system.

Avoid heavy pressure and the 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 control while driving in a hazardous situation.

• Frequently inspect the light system to ensure that it is operating properly and 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 reinstalling the

product.

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

death.

Installing the MB-IDENT03 Message Board

To mount the MB-IDENT03 Message Board onto the Rear Window Guards:

1. For installation purposes, determine the proper location on the Rear Window Guard by placing the

already assembled model on the Rear Window Guard grille surface to make sure the exit wires on

the model are not pinched or covered by any of the metal webbing on the window guard.

2. Once the proper light position is located on the window guard, mark all four corner edges of the light

assembly with a pencil.

3. Set the light assembly on a clean, ﬂat surface and carefully remove all ten of the mounting screws

and set the screws aside.

4. For the next two steps, have another person help to hold and align the assembly during the

placement of the light assembly and the re-fastening of the screws to mount the light assembly to the

window guard. The light assemblies will be on the outside surface of the window guards.

If window guard is already installed on the vehicle, make sure window is rolled down and both sides

of the window guard are easily accessible.

5. Carefully lift the upper Front Fastener Strip, lens/PC board assembly, and large mounting plate all

together. While keeping these parts together, place the light within the marked locations on the

outside surface of the window guard. Keep the wires away from any edges to avoid the chang of

wires after installation. See Figure 1.
