Step 9

ZROADZ recommends wiring the LED Lights with the ZROADZ harness kit (part# Z390020S-A) or by utilizing a compatible custom wiring harness. Wiring must be installed by a competent &
knowledgeable automotive electrician. Connect the harness to the battery and secure the cables.

Step 10

To adjust the angle of your Light Bar, rotate the LED(s) to adjust the angles till your desired light pattern is reached. There will be minimal adjustment due to curved light bar orientation. You may then tighten the hardware and secure everything into place. Be careful not to over-tighten the mounting hardware. It is best to adjust the angle with the vehicle on level ground with lights facing a wall, garage door, or other solid barrier. We recommend checking from a distance of 25′. Your installation is now completed.

WARNING

PLEASE CONSULT YOUR LOCAL AUTOMOTIVE ELECTRICAL PROFESSIONAL FOR INSTALLATION SERVICES AND ADVICE. ZROADZ IS ONLY EQUIPPED TO PROVIDE BASIC TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE DUE TO THE DIVERSITY OF VEHICLES, VEHICLE OPTIONS & MODIFICATIONS AND LIGHTING CONFIGURATION OPTIONS AVAILABLE. ZROADZ cannot be held liable due to improper component installation and/or faulty wiring.

GENERAL GUIDELINES

LED Lights & LED Light Bars are to operate at relatively high currents and should only be installed by qualified personnel with experience in switched/relayed high draw DC Circuits.

Light Bars are designed for use only with standard 12v DC power systems
Light Bars are for OFF-ROAD USE ONLY. Check your local laws & regulations regarding vehicle-mounted lights.
Some Light Bars are equipped with waterproof connectors while others are simply pig-tailed
Red Wires = POSITIVE | Black Wires = NEGATIVE
ALWAYS install your lights on a fused circuit. Basic fusing guidelines: maximum 5A for every 10” of LED Light Bar.

GENERAL USE, INSTALL AND ADJUSTMENT TIPS

NOTE 1 : ZROADZ LED Light Bars themselves are for OFF-ROAD USE ONLY.
NOTE 2: Light Bars depending on the configuration of your vehicle and its options and/or modifications may need to be adjusted for appropriate beam projection. To adjust the angle of your light bars simply loosen the mounting hardware on either side of each Light Bar, rotate the Light Bar to adjust the angle, and then tighten the hardware once the desired angle is achieved (please be careful not to over-tighten the mounting hardware or scratch the protective powder-coat finish). It is best to adjust the angle with the vehicle on level ground with the lights facing a wall, garage door or other solid barrier at a distance of approximately 25-30 feet.
NOTE 3 : Please consult a qualified automotive electrical professional for light bar wiring installation.

NOTE 4: An optional universal wiring harness (part#Reserved – Copyright ©2015 – ZROADZ.com Z390020S-A) is also available that includes high-heat & oil/fuel resistant wires, waterproof connector, 12v relay, 12v rocker switch, and inline fuse holder. Our universal wiring harness significantly expedites the installation process but is not a vehicle-specific “Plug & Play“ product and does not eliminate the need for a professional installation. Please contact your local ZROADZ dealer for more information or visit www.zroadz.com.

PRODUCT CARE INFORMATION

Wash regularly as you would when caring for your vehicles. Never use dish soap. Never leave wet water spots as that may leave a blemish.

MATTE BLACK FINISH

Paint warranty applies to defects in material and/or workmanship, it does not cover the matte finish surface appearance.B To enjoy the matte appearance for many years to come, please follow these owner care and maintenance tips. Get a no-shine matte car wash soap that uses no fillers, no silicone, and won’t strip your matte paint of its layer of protection. o not use wax, detail spray, armorall®, or any products made for normal paint. Use only products specifically developed for matte finish paint. Do not use products that are even mildly abrasive, such as polishes, glazes, or rubbing compounds. Do not use mechanical cleaners or polishers. Do not use terrycloth, cloth, or paper towels. Do not rub the finish vigorously, this will burnish the paint finish, causing a permanent shiny spot. Shiny spots cannot be removed. Do not use commercial car wash facilities or their shine enhancement products. Most car wash brushes, large mechanized “towels,” and shine enhancement products can damage matte paint. Remove foreign substances such as insect remains, tar, and road debris using a soft applicator and a mild solvent; saturate and soak area before cleaning the scrub lightly. Hand-wash with a soft wash mitt and mild cleaning product safe for matte paint. Use microfiber cleaning cloths with an alcohol-based window cleaner for basic surface clean-up.

GLOSS BLACK FINISH
ZROADZ with Gloss Black Powder Coated Finish may be washed regularly as you would when caring for your vehicles finish using soap and water. ZROADZ should be waxed at the same time that you wax the vehicle. As a general rule, anything you use to clean your vehicles painted surfaces can be used to clean and maintain your ZROADZ grille. A Gloss powder Coated Finish can be cared for in the same fashion that you would care for your vehicles factory paint job. Never leave wet water spots as that may leave a blemish.
