17 Routine Care and Maintenance
1. Operate the unit in a well ventilated area with at least six inches clearance at the
rear of the unit for proper air flow. Do not place any objects below the unit or
between the feet as this will restrict airflow through the bottom of the front face
plate.
2. For safe operation, use only a grounded outlet.
3. Avoid physical shocks or jarring to the unit especially while the unit is operating.
Such sudden movements reduce the lamp module life.
4. The lamp module must be operated for a minimum of 20 minutes each time it is
turned on to prevent damaging the lamp. Increasing the time between turning
the lamp module on and off will maximize lamp life.
5. Replace the air filters frequently to ensure unrestricted air flow. It is
recommended as a minimum that the air filter be removed and washed with a
mild detergent and water every time the lamp module is replaced.
6. When necessary, clean the light emitting end of the light guide using an optical
cleaning solution.
7. Cleaning of unit is not required, however if cleaning is desired, disconnect the AC
power cord from the unit and use only a water and simple detergent solution.
Ensure that cleaning solution does not come in contact with any optical, moving
mechanical or electrical parts.
8. Recommended operation of the X-Cite 120 is in horizontal position using the X-
Cite 120 beyond 15% of tilt from a horizontal position will wear lamp life.
Note:
restricted airflow can cause the lamp temperature to increase above
optimum temperature, significantly reducing lamp life.
