is a low maintenance fixture. It is only necessary to clean
the lenses, air inlets and outlets from time to time. For safe operation it is absolutely
essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid residues
must not build up on, or within, the fixture. If they do, the fixture's light output will be
significantly reduced, and damages to the fixture may occur. Regular cleaning will not
only ensure the maximum light output, but will also allow the fixture to operate
reliably throughout its entire life. Under no circumstances should alcohol or
solvents be used to clean the fixture or its lenses!
5.1 Safety regulations
•
Disconnect the fixture from the mains power before commencing any
maintenance work!
•
Wait minimum 15 minutes after removing the power to allow the fixture to
cool down.

environment. Hence no specific guidelines can be given. The cleaning intervals
