Do not insert objects into air vents. 

 

Do not connect this device to a dimmerpack. 

 

Do not switch the device on and off in short intervals, as this would reduce the lamp’s life. 

 

Do not touch the device’s housing bare-handed during its operation (housing becomes very hot). 
Allow the fixture to cool for at least 15 minutes before handling. 

 

Do not shake the device. Avoid brute force when installing or operating the device.

Always keep case closed while operating. 

 

Always allow free air space of at least 50 cm around the unit for ventilation. 

 

Always disconnect power from the mains, when device is not used, before cleaning or when 
replacing lamp! Only handle the power-cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the 
power-cord. 

 

To ensure the longest and most efficient use of the lamp always wait 15 minutes before re-
applying power after a shutdown. Failure to do so could result in premature aging of the lamp 
and failure to the electronics that drive it. 

 

Make sure that the device is not exposed to extreme heat, moisture or dust. 

 

Make sure that the available voltage is not higher than stated on the rear panel. 

 

Make sure that the power-cord is never crimped or damaged. Check the device and the power-
cord from time to time. 

 

If the lens is obviously damaged, it has to be replaced. So that its functions are not impaired, due 
to cracks or deep scratches. 

 

If device is dropped or struck, disconnect mains power supply immediately. Have a qualified 
engineer inspect for safety before operating. 

 

If the device has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do 
not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your device. Leave 
the device switched off until it has reached room temperature. 

 

If your Showtec device fails to work properly, discontinue use immediately. Pack the unit securely 
(preferably in the original packing material), and return it to your Showtec dealer for service.

Never attempt to bypass the thermostatic switch or fuses. 

 

For replacement use lamps and fuses of same type and rating only. 

 

Replace the lamp if it becomes defective or worn out, or before usage exceeds the maximum 
service life.
