HIGH VOLTAGE-RISK
OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!!
• Never let the power cable come into contact with other
cables. Handle the power cable and all mains voltage
connections with particular caution!
• Never remove warning or informative labels from the unit.
• Do not open the equipment and do not modify the unit.
• Do not connect this equipment to a dimmer pack.
• Do not switch the equipment on and off in short intervals,
as this will reduce the system’s life.
• Only use the equipment indoors.
• Do not expose to flammable sources, liquids or gases.
• Always disconnect the power from the mains when
equipment is not in use or before cleaning! Only handle
the power-cable by the plug. Never pull out the plug by
pulling the power-cable.
• Make sure that the available mains supply voltage is
240V AC, 50Hz.
• Make sure that the power cable is never crimped or
damaged. Check the equipment and the power cable
periodically.
• If the equipment is dropped or damaged, disconnect the
mains power supply immediately and have a qualified
engineer inspect the equipment before operating again.
• If the equipment has been exposed to drastic
temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation),
do not connect power or switch it on immediately.
The arising condensation might damage the equipment.
Leave the equipment switched off until it has reached
room temperature.
• If your product fails to function correctly, stop use
immediately. Pack the unit securely (preferably in the
original packing material), and return it to your Pro Light
dealer for service.
• Only use fuses and lamps of the same type and rating.
• This device falls under protection class I. The power plug
must only be plugged into a protection class I outlet. The
voltage and frequency must be exactly the same as stated
on the fixture. Incorrect voltages or power outlets can lead
to the destruction of the fixture and to electric shocks.
• During the initial start-up some smoke or smell may arise.
This is a normal process and does not necessarily mean
that the fixture is defective.
• CAUTION! During the operation, the housing/lamps
become extremely hot.
• This device is designed for professional use only
e.g. on stages, in discotheques and theatres etc.
• The maximum duty cycle is 1 minute (full on). Afterwards,
switch the device off and let it cool down for 3 minutes.
• The fixture must never be operated or stockpiled in
surroundings where splash water, rain, moisture or fog
may harm the device. Moisture or very high humidity
can reduce the insulation and lead to electric shocks.
When using smoke machines, make sure the fixture is
never exposed to the direct smoke jet and is installed in
a distance of 0.5m between the smoke machine and the
fixture. The room must only be saturated with an amount
of smoke where the visibility is still greater than 10m.
• Never use this fixture during thunderstorms. Over voltage
could destroy the fixture. Always disconnect the device
during thunderstorms.
• The symbol
determines the minimum
distance from lit objects. The minimum distance
between light fixture and the illuminated surface
must be more than 2m.
