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.

Emergency warning devices often require high electrical voltages and/or currents. Properly
protect and use caution around live electrical connections. Grounding or shorting of electri-
cal connections can cause high current arcing, which can cause personal injury and/or
severe vehicle damage, including fire.
