 Double Feature                         Fuse & Lamp Replacement

Caution:

 

Always replace with the exact same type lamp, unless oth-

erwise  specified  by  an  authorized  American  DJ

®

  service  technician. 

Replacing  with  anything  other  than  the  specified  part  can  damage 
your unit and will void your manufactures warranty.

Warning: 

If you continue to blow lamps or the fuse, STOP using the 

unit. Contact customer support for further instructions, you may have 
to return the unit for servicing. Continuing to use the unit may cause 
serious damage.

Lamp  Replacement:

 

Caution!  Never  attempt  to  change  the  lamp 

while  the  fixture  is  plugged  in.  Always  disconnect  the  main  power 
and allow the unit ample time to cool before attempting to replace the 
lamp. Lamp replacement has been made simple by incorporating the 
use of a flip-up front cover that is retained by thumb screws.
1.   Be sure to follow the proper handling procedures that deal with  
 

halogen lamps.

2.   Remove the phillips screws on the front of the unit that holds the  
 

lamp socket assembly cover in place.

3.   After removing the phillips screws, remove cover from the front  
 

of the unit to expose the lamp socket assembly.

4.  Carefully remove the old lamp(s) and discard them in the trash.
5.  Replace the lamp(s) with an exact match and reassemble in    
 

reverse order.

This fixture is fitted with halogen lamps which are 
highly susceptible to damage if improperly han-
dled. Never touch the lamps with your bare fin-
gers as the oil from your hands will shorten lamp 
life. Also, never move the fixture until the lamps 
have had ample time to cool. Remember, lamps 
are not covered under warranty conditions.

                             Cleaning

 Double Feature    

                          Trouble Shooting

Fixture Cleaning:

 Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the 

internal and external optical lenses and mirror should be carried out 
periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on 
the environment in which the fixture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, 
dust, dew). In heavy club use we recommend cleaning on a monthly 
basis. Periodic cleaning will ensure longevity, and crisp output.
1.   Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the out- 
 

side casing.

2.   Use a brush to wipe down the cooling vents and fan grill.
3.   Clean the external optics and mirror with glass cleaner and a soft  
 

cloth every 20 days.

4.   Clean the internal optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every  
 

30-60 days.

5.  Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit  
 

back in.

Trouble  Shooting:

  Listed  below  are  a  few  common  problems  that 

you may encounter, with solutions.

No light output from the unit;

1.   Be sure you have connected your unit into a standard 120v wall  
 

 outlet.  

2.    Be sure the fuse has not blown. 
3.    Remove the lamp cover and be sure the lamps are seated in their  
 

 sockets properly. Occasionally lamps become loose during ship- 

 

 ping be sure the lamps are pushed in to their sockets all the way.

 
Unit does not respond to sound;

1.     Low frequencies (bass) should cause the unit to react to sound.
    Tapping on the microphone, quiet or high pitched sounds may
 

 not activate the unit.  

2.   Be sure the sensitivity knob

 

is not set to the minimum position  

 

 (full counter-clockwise).

Fuse Replacement:

 Locate and remove the unit’s power cord. Once 

the cord has been removed located the fuse holder located inside the 
power  socket.  Insert  a  flat-head  screw  driver  into  the  power  socket 
and gently pry out the fuse holder. Remove the bad fuse and replace 
with a new one. The fuse holder has a built-in socket for a spare fuse 
be sure not to confuse the spare fuse with active fuse.
