horn operation, vehicle safety functions, and vehicle lighting systems to ensure proper operation. Ensure that
the installation has not affected the vehicle operation or changed any vehicle safety functions or circuits. Do not
test the light system of the vehicle while driving. Operating the vehicle warning systems may pose a hazard to
the operator and other drivers if the systems do not function as expected. Test the vehicle only in a controlled
environment. After testing is complete, provide a copy of these instructions to the instructional staff and all
operating personnel.
Maintaining and Servicing the Warning Light
Establishing a regular maintenance schedule for the warning light extends the life of the light and ensures safety.
Periodically check that the light operates properly and that all mounting hardware is securely fastened to the
vehicle. Also, inspect the dome for cracks, crazing (hairline cracks), discoloration, and other defects.

Cleaning the Dome

Dirt on the plastic dome reduces the effectiveness of the warning light. Periodic cleaning not only maintains
the effectiveness of the warning light, but prolongs the life of the dome.
To clean the dome:
1. Rinse the dome with lukewarm water to loosen dirt and debris.
2.
Use a mild soap, lukewarm water, and a soft cloth to gently clean the plastic surfaces. To avoid
damaging the dome, do not use heavy pressure or caustic, abrasive, or petroleum-based cleaners.
3. Rinse the dome and dry it with a soft cloth to prevent water spotting.
To remove fine scratches and haze, use a specialty plastic cleaner/polish and a soft cloth. You can also use
a high quality automotive paste cleaner/wax that is non-abrasive.

Cleaning the Reflector

Dirt on the reflector reduces the effectiveness of the warning light. To clean the reflector:
1. Wait for the lamp to cool, and unscrew and remove the dome.
2. Use a soft tissue to gently clean the plastic surface. To avoid damaging the reflector, do not use heavy
pressure or caustic, abrasive, or petroleum-based cleaners. To avoid damaging the lamp, do not use
liquids.
3.
Reinstall the dome.
CRAZING/CLEANING SOLUTIONS—The use of cleaning solutions, such as strong detergents,
solvents, and petroleum products, can cause crazing (hairline cracks) of the dome and reflector.
To clean the reflector, use a soft, damp cloth. To clean the dome, use a soft cloth and a solution
of water and a mild detergent. Failure to follow this warning can damage them, reducing the
effectiveness of the lighting system, which may result in injury or death.
CRAZING/CHEMICALS—A crazed, cracked, or faded dome or reflector reduces the light output and
the effectiveness of the lighting system. A dome or reflector showing this type of aging must be
replaced. Failure to follow this warning may result in injury or death.
