•
Do not operate the projector close to water, such as near a swimming pool. Do not
operate in extremely humid environments.
•
Do not place the projector on an unstable cart, stand or table. A projector and cart
combination should be used with care. Sudden stops, excessive force and uneven
surfaces may cause the projector and cart combination to overturn.
•
Only use Christie-approved ceiling mount fixture, if the projector is to be ceiling
mounted.
Lamp:
The projector uses a Cermax
®
Xenon lamp to deliver its high brightness. A
lamp should be replaced when it has reached its end of life or if a noticeable change in
brightness occurs. Keep track of the number of hours the lamp has been in use (
Lamp
Menu
) and be aware of any changes to brightness. These indicators will help you
effectively maintain operation of the projector.
WARNING
Wait approximately five minutes after powering down the
projector to allow internal cooling fans to stop and for the
lamp to cool sufficiently before removing.
Never attempt to remove the lamp housing directly
after use. The lamp is under great pressure when hot
and may explode, causing personal injury and/or
property damage. Allow cooling completely.
WARNING
Use only lamps supplied by Christie. Use lamps of the correct
wattage for your projector model when replacing.
Filter:
Replace the filter when you replace the lamp or sooner if required
.
It is
important the filter be replaced regularly to ensure sufficient airflow through the
projector, otherwise it could cause the projector to overheat.
WARNING
Use Christie approved filters ONLY.
Refer to
4.4 Lamp and Filter Replacement for instructions.
The North American rated line cord is provided with each projector. Ensure
that you are using a line cord, socket and power plug that meets the
appropriate local rating standards.
Use only the attachments and/or accessories recommended by Christie. Use of others
may result in the risk of fire, shock or personal injury.
WARNING
Use only an AC power cord recommended by Christie. Do not attempt
operation if the AC supply and cord are not within the specified voltage
and power range.
