Mounting the Arjent®Lightbar on a Vehicle Roof
6Model XHK-SD Mounting Kit
Testing the Installation
SOUND HAZARD—All effective sirens and horns produce loud sounds (120 dB)
that may cause permanent hearing loss. Always minimize your exposure to the
sound of the siren and horn and wear hearing protection. Do not sound the siren
or horn indoors or in enclosed areas where you and others will be exposed to the
sound.
LIGHT HAZARD—To be an effective warning device, an emergency warning system
produces bright light that can be hazardous to your eyesight when viewed at a
close range. Do not stare directly into the lights at a close range or permanent
damage to your eyesight may occur.
