to be sure you can proceed safely before entering an intersec-
tion, 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

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 con-
nections 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 INSURE THE SAFETY OF
EMERGENCY PERSONNEL AND THE PUBLIC.
