Usage Instructions
- Before using the unit, carefully read the instruction manual and keep it for future reference.
- Ensure that the mains voltage and frequency match the values specified on the equipment before connecting it to the power outlet.
- If the equipment has a voltage selection switch, only connect it to the power outlet if the equipment values and mains power values match.
- If the included power cord or power adapter does not fit in your wall outlet, contact an electrician.
- If the power cord has an earthing contact, it must be connected to an outlet with a protective ground. Never deactivate the protective ground of a power cord.
- Dispose of the product correctly by handing it over to an applicable collection point for recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. This helps prevent negative consequences for= the environment and human health caused by inappropriate waste handling.
- If the unit has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation, do not switch it on immediately to prevent condensation water damage. Leave it switched off until it reaches room temperature.
- Check the label on the backside of the unit to determine the correct mains voltage it should be connected to. Using any other voltage may cause irreparable damage.
- Always connect the unit to a protected circuit and ensure it has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
- Regularly inspect and clean the unit to maintain its performance and lifetime. Dirt buildup can reduce light output, hinder correct cooling, and decrease the unit’s lifespan.

- Always allow free air space of at least 50 cm around the unit for ventilation.
- Make sure that the area below the installation place is blocked when rigging, derigging or servicing the unit.
- For mounting height >100 cm, always fix the unit with an appropriate safety-rope. Fix the safety-rope at the correct fixation points only. The safety-rope must never be fixed at the transport handles!
- Never look directly at the light beam. Please note that fast changes in lighting, e. g. flashing light, may trigger epileptic seizures in photosensitive persons or persons with epilepsy.
- This unit is not designed for permanent operation. Consistent operation breaks will ensure that the unit will serve you for a long time without defects.
WARNING
If the power cord of the unit is equipped with an earthing contact, then it
must be connected to an outlet with a protective ground. Never deactivate the
protective ground of a power cord.

POWERSUPPLY
The label on the backside of the unit indicates the mains voltage to which it must be connected. Check that the mains voltage corresponds to this. Any other voltage than the one indicated may cause irreparable damage to the unit. The unit must also be connected directly to the mains voltage and no dimmer or adjustable power supply may be used.
WARNING
Always connect the unit to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make
sure the unit has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of
electrocution or fire.
CLEANING
The buildup of dust, dirt and other airborne particles will reduce the unit’s
light output. It will also prevent the unit from cooling correctly, and this
will reduce the unit’s lifetime. The rate of dirt buildup will vary depending
on environmental factors such as airborne dust, use of smoke machines, airflow
from ventilation systems, etc. The unit’s cooling fans will accelerate
buildup, and any smoke particles that are present in the atmosphere will
increase the tendency for dirt to clog.
To get the best performance and lifetime from the unit, inspect it regularly
and clean it as soon as you see signs of dirt buildup.
Assess the operating environment each time you begin to use the unit. In dusty
or smoky conditions, inspect the unit after a few hours and check it
frequently the unit may attract dirt faster than you expect. Draw up a
cleaning schedule that will make sure that dirt is removed before it can build
up.
Use the following guidelines:
- Disconnect the unit from power and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
- Do not use solvents, abrasives or any other aggressive product to clean the unit.
- Vacuum or use low-pressure compressed air to remove dust and loose particles from surfaces and air vents. Prevent the blades of cooling fans from turning before you aim a vacuum or air jet at the fan, or you may spin the fan too fast and damage it.
- Clean glass components by wiping gently with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth moistened with a weak detergent solution. Put the solution on the cloth and not on the surface to be cleaned. Avoid rubbing glass surfaces.
- Dry the unit with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth or low-pressure compressed air before reapplying power.
REPLACING THE FUSE
If the fuse is defective, replace the fuse with a fuse of the same type and value. Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead.
Procedure:
- Step 1: Open the fuse holder on the rear panel with a fitting screwdriver.
- Step 2: Remove the old fuse from the fuse holder.
- Step 3: Install the new fuse in the fuse holder.
- Step 4: Replace the fuse holder in the housing.
