B.
Magnetic Mount.
Place the light assembly on the vehicle roof at a location which provides maximum
signalling effectiveness for your application.
Holding power of magnetic mounting systems is dependent upon surface finish,
surface flatness, and thickness of the steel mounting surface. Therefore, to
promote proper magnetic mounting:
•
Mounting surface and magnets must be kept clean, dry, and free of foreign
particles that prevent good surface contact.
•
Ensure that mounting surface is flat.
•
Magnetic mounting system should not be used on vehicles with vinyl tops.
•
To prevent sliding of light assembly on mounting surface, quick accelera-
tion and hard stops should be avoided.
If driving conditions require your full attention, you should avoid inserting the
plug in the cigarette lighter socket.
To avoid overheating of plug assembly during operation, ensure that the
cigarette lighter socket is free of dirt and ashes.
To operate the magnet mount light assembly, insert the plug on the end of the cable
assembly in the cigarette lighter socket.

MAINTENANCE.
A.
Cleaning the Plastic Dome.
Crazing (cracking) of dome will cause reduced effectiveness of light system. Do
not use cleaning agents (which will cause crazing) such as strong detergents,
solvents, or petroleum products. If crazing of dome does occur, reliability of
light for emergency warning purposes may be reduced until dome is replaced.
Ordinary cleaning of the plastic dome can be accomplished by using mild soap and a soft
rag. Should fine scratches or a haze appear on dome, they can ordinarily be removed with a non-
abrasive, high quality, one-step, automotive paste cleaner/wax and a soft cloth.
B.
Cleaning Reflectors and Mirrors.
Scratched or dulled reflectors or mirrors will cause reduced effectiveness of
light system. Avoid heavy pressure and use of caustic or petroleum based
products when cleaning. If reflectors or mirrors become scratched or dulled,
reliability of light for emergency warning purposes may be reduced until
reflectors or mirrors are replaced.
Use a soft tissue to clean the reflectors and mirrors.
