Introduction
The ETSA46(x)HPP is a remote mounted siren
amplifier designed for a single (ETSA461) or
dual (ETSA462) external speaker.
The amplifier box is controlled with a hand
held remote containing a noise-cancelling
microphone for PA use. The ETSA462 contains
a 2 channel amplifier for driving 2 independent
sounds. The ETSA461 is a single 100w design.
The controller offers 3 multiple programmable
levels as well as 8 independently controlled
accessory switches.
Notice
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.

WARNING
Do not install this product or route its wires in
the air bag deployment area.
Doing so may cause damage to or reduce
effectiveness of the air bag, or create projectile
that could cause serious injury or death.
To determine air bag deployment area refer to
vehicle manufacturer's manual.
MOUNTING
-Amplifier Installation-
Before drilling holes, check for clearance to prevent
damage. Check both sides of the mounting surface
before drilling and the be aware of any vehicle
components or other vital parts that may be damaged
during drilling.
Install grommets in any wire passage holes.
1. Slide ¼” hex head bolts into siren amplifier t-slots.
2. Place mounting brackets over bolts.
3. Thread ¼” lock nuts onto bolts and tighten down.
4. Use mounting bracket holes to secure amplifier.
5. Install amplifier with clearance from other objects
for improved ventilation.

-Holster Installation-
A holster is provided for mounting the hand held remote. Choose a
location convenient to the operator and away from any air bag deployment areas. Using the back plate as a template, mark the 4 holes to
be drilled. Using a 1/8” drill bit, drill the mounting holes. Install the 4
#6 screws provided with the bracket.
WIRING:
WARNING! All customer supplied wires connecting to the
positive terminal of the battery must be sized to supply at least
125% of the maximum operating current and FUSED at the
battery to carry that load.
Ensure the siren amplifier / relay unit is mounted in dry, protected
environment.
