Replacing the bulb
It is recommended that the bulb be replaced after 2500 hours of
use.
WARNING
w
To ensure the proper operation and light
intensity, replace the bulb only with an
Ohmeda Medical bulb (6600-0235-850). Use of
other bulbs will affect the performance of,
and may result in damage to, the Giraffe Spot
PT Lite Phototherapy System.
1.
Turn off power and disconnect the power cord. Allow the
lamp to cool at least 10 minutes.
WARNING
w
When the unit is connected to a power
source, there is high voltage in the bulb
assembly. Always disconnect the power cord
when replacing the bulb.
2.
Using a 3mm hex key (6600-1246-400), remove the screw in
the front of the unit, located in the center at the top of the
cover. Remove the cover.
3.
Grasp the bulb assembly by the electrical connector and pull
it free from the wire retainer that holds it in place.
Note: Do not touch the center glass bulb or mirror with your
fingers. Contamination of the bulb may result in reduced
lamp performance. If you touch the bulb during installation or
if you see stains, clean the bulb with alcohol and dry with a
clean, soft cloth.
4.
Disconnect the electrical connector and discard the bulb.
CAUTION
w
To avoid damage to equipment, install bulb
before powering unit.
5.
Connect the new bulb and slide it back into place. Orient the
bulb so that “THIS SIDE UP” faces up. Be sure that the bulb
seats completely in the groove in the metal housing.
6.
Reinstall the cover and secure it with the screw. Never
operate the unit with the cover open.
