Do not stare directly into this lighting product at a close range, or permanent damage toyour eyesight may occur.• Do not install the light system in an area that would block, impair, or blind the driver’s vision. Ensure that the lightsystem is mounted in a position that is outside the driver’s field of vision so the driver can safely operate the vehicle.• A light system is a high current system. For the system to function properly, a separate negative (–) connection andpositive (+) connection must be made. All negative connections should be connected to the negative batteryterminal, and a suitable fuse should be installed on the positive battery terminal connection as close to the battery aspossible. Ensure that all wires and fuses are rated correctly to handle the device and system amperagerequirements.• Never attempt to install aftermarket equipment that connects to the vehicle wiring without reviewing a vehicle wiringdiagram available from the vehicle manufacturer. Ensure that your installation will not affect vehicle operation ormandated safety functions or circuits. Always check the vehicle for proper operation after installation.• The lighting system components, especially the outer housing, get hot during operation. Be sure to disconnect powerto the system and allow the system to cool down before handling any components of the system.• Do not mount a radio antenna within 18 inches (45.7 cm) of the lighting system. Placing the antenna too close tothe lighting system could cause the lighting system to malfunction or be damaged by strong radio fields. Mountingthe antenna too close to the lighting system may also cause the radio noise emitted from the lighting system tointerfere with the reception of the radio transmitter and reduce radio reception.• Do not attempt to wash any unsealed electrical device while it is connected to its power source.• DO NOT connect this system to the vehicle battery until ALL other electrical connections are made, mounting ofall components is complete, and you have verified that no shorts exist. If the wiring is shorted to the vehicle body orframe, high current conductors can cause hazardous sparks, resulting in electrical fires or flying molten metal.• DO NOT install equipment or route wiring (or the plug-in cord) in the deployment path of an airbag.• Before drilling into a vehicle structure, ensure that both sides of the surface are clear of anything that could bedamaged. Remove all burrs from drilled holes. To prevent electrical shorts, grommet all drilled holes through whichwiring passes. Also, ensure that the mounting screws do not cause electrical or mechanical damage to the vehicle.Larson Electronics, LLC Phone: (877) 348-9680 Fax: (903) 498-3364 www.larsonelectronics.com 1 of 6WARNING: MAKE SURE POWER IS TURNED OFF BEFORE STARTING THEINSTALLATION OR PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE.
