Installation Manual

CIRCLE CARBINE®

All STL equipment needs to be mounted and installed according to the vehicle manufacture’s instructions and securely attached to a part of the

vehicle of sucient strength to withstand the forces applied by the equipment. This device should be permanently mounted within the zones

spwecied by the vehicle manufacturer. This especially applies to equipment mounted on the exterior of the vehicle to avoid dislodging. Mount-

ing units on the interior of the vehicle by a method other than permanent mount is discouraged as it may become detached under aggressive

driving conditions such as sudden braking, collision, or swerving.

PROPER INSTALLATION COMBINED WITH OPERATOR TRAINING IN THE PROPER USE OF EMERGENCY

WARNING DEVICES IS ESSENTIAL TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF EMERGENCY PERSONNEL AND THE PUBLIC.

Important Points for Your Safety and Longevity of Your Light Bar

• Installers are required to have a good understanding of automotive electronic systems and procedures for proper installation.

• Never stare directly into the LEDs as momentary blindness and/or eye damage may occur.

• Never take any lights through a car wash. Use only water to clean the outer body/lens of your equipment.

• Never use a pressure washer to clean any STL products. Inspect and test your product daily to ensure it operates properly and is mounted

correctly.

• Never cut wires or work on a unit while the unit is still connected to a power source.

• Never install this product or route any wires through or in the deployment area of the airbag. Doing so may cause serious personal injury as

it will damage or reduce the eectiveness of the airbag by causing the unit to become a projectile. Reference the owner’s manual for your

vehicle to nd the airbag deployment area. The User/Installer assumes all responsibility to determine proper mounting location, based on

providing ultimate safety to all passengers in the vehicle.

• If the product requires you to drill holes, the installer must ensure that the drilling process does not damage any vehicle components or other

vital parts. Check all sides of the mounting surface before beginning to drill. Make sure to deburr all drilled holes and remove any metal rem-

nants or shards to avoid injury and wires from becoming spliced. Grommets are to be installed in all wire passage holes.

• In order for STL products to operate at optimum eciency, a secure and good electrical connection to the battery’s Ground Post must be

made. The recommended procedure requires the unit’s ground wire be connected directly to the NEGATIVE (-) battery post.

• Instruction manuals should be stored in a safe place for reference if you need to reinstall the unit or perform maintenance. They can also be

found at the main site under the product listing at www.SpeedTechLights.com. If your product is no longer available on the website contact

STL’s Customer Service at 800-757-2581 for assistance.

• If your product requires the use of a control box or remote device to turn on and control your equipment make sure it is installed in a location

that allows both the user and the vehicle to operate safely in any driving condition.

• Never activate or control your equipment in hazardous driving conditions.

• FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS, WARNINGS, NOTICES, AND INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE PRODUCT

OR VEHICLE THAT WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY AND/OR CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY TO YOU AND YOUR PASSENGER.
