Introduction

The RX 2700™ Lightbar is approximately 2.7" high, yet delivers 360° of unobstructed warning signal. PriZm™ reflector technology means more

signal power and versatility than any other lightbar of its size.

The low profile and aerodynamic lines reduce air drag, which results in fuel savings and stability at high speeds. This lightbar has a strong extruded

internal frame, shock-resistant polycarbonate lenses, and warning signals that exceed SAE standards.

The RX 2700 is designed on a modular basis, which means that the lightbar can be customized to meet any requirement. The RX 2700 has room

for numerous halogen and LED options. While we do not recommend a light installed in every location, the design of the RX 2700 offers the ultimate

flexibility in the location of warning and auxiliary lights.

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 proceed 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 vehicle.

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 operate

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 damage, including fire.

PROPER INSTALLATION COMBINED WITH OPERATOR TRAINING IN THE PROPER USE OF EMERGENCY WARN-

ING DEVICES IS ESSENTIAL TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF EMERGENCY PERSONNEL AND THE PUBLIC.
