  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 outside 
 

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 external fuse has not blown. The fuse is located on the
  

 bottom panel of the unit. 

3.    Remove the lamp cover and be sure the lamp is seated in its 
 

 socket properly. Occasionally lamps become loose during shipping 

 

 be sure the lamp is push in to its socket all the way.

4.  

Be sure the fuse holder is completely and properly seated. 

 

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 (6)

  is not set to the minimum
