IMPORTANT WARNINGS TO USERS OF SIRENS: "Wail" and "Yelp" tones are in some cases (such as the state of California) the only
recognized siren tones for calling for the right of way. Ancillary tones such as "Air Horn", "Hi-Lo", "Hyper-Yelp", and "Hyper-Lo" in
some cases do not provide as high a sound pressure level. It is recommended that these tones be used in a secondary mode to alert
motorists to the presence of multiple emergency vehicles or to the momentary shift from the primary tone as an indication of the imminent
presence of any emergency vehicle.
To enter into Programming Mode, follow the following instructions:
1.
Move Level Switch to Level 0 (furthest to the left).
2.
Turn all Auxiliary Switches off.
3.

release.
5.
Immediately press, in order, Auxiliary Buttons A - B - C - F.
6.
If entered correctly, the 3 level switch lights will be flashing and you are now in Programming mode, if you entered this incorrectly, the
siren will automatically return and you will need to start again at step 4.
