WARNING!
All devices should be mounted in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and securely fastened to vehicle elements of suf-
cient strength to withstand the forces applied to the device. Ease of operation and convenience to the operator should be the prime
consideration when mounting the siren and controls. Adjust the mounting angle to allow maximum operator visibility. Do not mount
the Hand-Held Controller in a location that will obstruct the drivers view. Mount the Hand-Held Controller mounting base in a convenient loca-
tion to allow the operator easy access. Devices should be mounted only in locations that conform to their SAE identication code as described
in SAE Standard J1849. For example, electronics designed for interior mounting should not be placed underhood, etc. Controls should be
placed within convenient reach* of the driver or if intended for two person operation the driver and/or passenger. In some vehicles, multiple
control switches and/or using methods such as “horn ring transfer” which utilizes the vehicle horn switch to toggle between siren tones may be
necessary for convenient operation from two positions.
*Convenient reach is dened as the ability of the operator of the siren system to manipulate the controls from their normal driving/riding posi-
tion without excessive movement away from the seat back or loss of eye contact with the roadway.
