8. Make sure that the anode (+) lead between lamp and Igniter is well away from any projector metal, such as
the reflector or firewall.
Leads too close to metal parts will cause arcing during starting pulse. This is
a Safety Hazard, and the lamp may not ignite.
9. Re-install the cooling compartment door and close the lamp compartment door.
NOTE:
The projector will not operate unless the louvered lamp compartment door is locked shut.
10. With a blue dot label or dry-erase pen, mark the lamp door's LAMP INSTALLED label to indicate the size of
the newly installed lamp - 2.0, 3.0, 4.5, or 6.0 kW. A supply of blue dot labels is secured inside the front

If your new lamp is rated higher or lower than the old lamp, record the new Lamp Size (2.0, 3.0, 4.5 or 6.0
kW) in projector memory as described below. This setting establishes the proper range of power available

projector memory.
