Introduction

The ETSA2ØØR is a Compact Siren
Amplifier designed for single 100 Watt

Hi-Lo, Super Hi-Lo, Radio, PA, Horn
Override, and a Manual Override are

Sirens provide an essential function
of an effective audio / visual warning
system. However, sirens are only short
range secondary devices. The use of
a siren does not insure that all drivers
can or will abide by or react to an
emergency warning signal, especially at
high rates of speeds or long distances.
The operator of the vehicle must never
take the right of way for granted and
it is the operator’s responsibility to
proceed safely.

The effectiveness of this siren system
is highly dependant on the correct
mounting and wiring. The installer must
read and follow the manufacturer’s
installation instructions and warnings in
the manual. The vehicle operator should
verify the siren system is securely
fastened to the vehicle and properly
functioning.

Effective sirens generate loud sound
pressure levels that can potentially
cause hearing damage. Installers and
those around the vehicle need to be
aware of the dangers and wear hearing
protection whenever the siren system
is operating. Vehicle operators and
occupants should assess their exposure
to siren noise and determine what steps
need to be taken to prevent hearing
damage.

The siren system is intended for use
by authorized personnel only. It is the
user’s responsibility to ensure they
understand and operate the emergency
warning devices in compliance with
all applicable city, state, and federal
laws and regulations. SoundOff
Signal assumes no liability for any
loss resulting from the use of the siren
system.
