WARNING: The use of this or any warning device does not ensure that all drivers can or will observe or react to an

emergency warning signal. Never take the right-of-way for granted. It is your responsibility to be sure you can pro-

ceed safely before entering an intersection, driving against traffic, responding at a high rate of speed, or walking on or

around traffic lanes. The effectiveness of this warning device is highly dependent upon correct mounting and wiring.

Read and follow the manufacturer’s instructions before installing or using this device. The vehicle operator should

insure daily that all features of the device operate correctly. In use, the vehicle operator should insure the projection of

the warning signal is not blocked by vehicle components (i.e.: open trunks or compartment doors), people, vehicles, or

other obstructions. This equipment is intended for use by authorized personnel only. It is the user’s responsibility to

understand and obey all laws regarding emergency warning devices. The user should check all applicable city, state

and federal laws and regulations. Code 3, Inc., assumes no liability for any loss resulting from the use of this warning

device. Proper installation is vital to the performance of this warning device and the safe operation of the emergency ve-

hicle. It is important to recognize that the operator of the emergency vehicle is under psychological and physiological

stress caused by the emergency situation. The warning device should be installed in such a manner as to: A) Not reduce

the output performance of the system, B) Place the controls within convenient reach of the operator so that he can op-

erate the system without losing eye contact with the roadway. Emergency warning devices often require high electrical

voltages and/or currents. Properly protect and use caution around live electrical connections. Grounding or shorting

of electrical connections can cause high current arcing, which can cause personal injury and/or severe vehicle dam-

age, including fire. PROPER INSTALLATION COMBINED WITH OPERATOR TRAINING IN THE PROPER USE OF EMER-

GENCY WARNING DEVICES IS ESSENTIAL TO INSURE THE SAFETY OF EMERGENCY PERSONNEL AND THE PUBLIC.
