Introduction
The RMX™ Lightbar is approximately 5.4" high and delivers 360° of unobstructed warning signal. PriZm II™ refl ector technology
means more signal power and versatility than any other lightbar of its size.
The 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 RMX has room for numerous LED options. While we do not recommend a light installed in every location, the design of the RMX
offers the ultimate fl exibility 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

proceed safely before entering an intersection, driving against traffi c, responding at a high rate of speed, or
walking on or around traffi c lanes.
The effectiveness of this warning device is highly dependent upon correct mounting and wiring. Read and

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 cur-
rent arcing, which can cause personal injury and/or severe vehicle damage, including fi re.
PROPER INSTALLATION COMBINED WITH OPERATOR TRAINING IN THE PROPER USE OF EMERGEN-
CY WARNING DEVICES IS ESSENTIAL TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF EMERGENCY PERSONNEL AND
THE PUBLIC.
