INSTALLATION AND SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FEDERAL SIGNAL MODEL WV450X FOR USE IN HAZARDOUS AND MARINE LOCATIONS.

SAFETY MESSAGE TO INSTALLERS, USERS AND MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL

It is important to follow all instructions shipped with this product. This device is to be installed by a trained electrician who is thoroughly familiar with and will follow all applicable national and local codes in the country of use.

This device should be considered a part of the warning system and not the entire warning system.

The selection of the mounting location for the device, its controls and the routing of the wiring are to be accomplished under the direction of the facilities engineer and the safety engineer. In addition, listed below are some other important safety instruc-tions and precautions you should follow:

• Readandunderstandallinstructionsbeforeinstallingoroperatingthisequipment.

• Neveraltertheunitinanymanner.Safetyinhazardouslocationsmaybe endangered if additional openings or other alterations are made in units specifically designed for use in these locations.

• Donotconnectthislighttothesystemwhenpowerison.

• Afterinstallation,ensurethatallsetscrewsandthreadedjointsareproperly tightened.

• Keepunittightlyclosedwheninoperation.

• Afterinstallation,testthelightsystemtoensurethatitisoperatingproperly.

• Aftertestingiscomplete;provideacopyofthisinstructionsheettoallpersonnel.

• Establishaproceduretoroutinelycheckthelightsystemforproperactivation and operation.

Failure to follow all safety precautions and instructions may result in property damage,seriousinjury,ordeath.
