Parts that need cleaning frequently
Parts that need cleaning monthly
Internal components should be
cleaned once a year by dislodging
dust and dirt with a brush and remov-
ing it simultaneously with a vacuum
cleaner.
IMPORTANT: isolate the projector from the electrical power supply before com-
mencing maintenance work of any description.
The maximum temperature on the outer surface of the projector under normal
operating conditions is 80° C (176° F).
After switching off, do not remove any part of the projector for at least 7 minutes,
as indicated on the lamp change label (2).
Once this time has elapsed, the risk of a lamp exploding is practically zero.
If the lamp needs changing, wait a further 15 minutes to avoid the risk of burns.
In the event of a lamp exploding, the projector is designed to prevent fragments of
glass from being scattered. The lenses supplied with the projector must be fitted
at all times, and if visibly damaged, must be replaced with genuine spares.
• Changing the lamp
Unscrew the two knobs (9) and
remove the lamp change cover (10).
Loosen the nut (11) of the lamp to be
replaced and remove it from plate
(12) gripping it by attachment (13).
Remove the new lamp from its box,
remove the nut (14) and loosen the
other nut (11).
Screw the lamp directly into plate
(12) gripping it by attachment (13).
Fit metal strip (15) onto attachment
(16) and fully tighten nut (11).
Refit cover (10) tightening knobs (9)
fully.
CAUTION: The projector uses a high pressure lamp with external starter.
- When fitting a new lamp, read the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
- The lamp must always be changed without delay if damaged or deformed by
heat.
• Replacing fuses
To replace the fuses, press the tab
(18) and pull out the fuse holder
(19). Replace any blown fuse with
one of the same type and rating as
indicated on the label (20) attached
to the holder (19).
Insert the fuse holder and push in to
engage the tab (18).
IMPORTANT: for uniform distribution of the light beam, the lamp must be posi-
tioned so that the glass pip (17) on the bulb does not coincide with any of the six
optical axes of the projector.

POSSIBLE CAUSES CHECKS AND REMEDIES
•

•
• •
• Lamp expended or faulty. Change lamp (see instructions).
Signal transmission cable short-
circuiting or disconnected. Change cables.
Address codes incorrect. See projector coding instructions.
Defect in electronic circuits. Contact an authorized technician.
Lenses broken. Contact an authorized technician.
Deposit of dust or grease. Clean (see instructions).
• Routine cleaning
To maintain the light output of the projector undiminished, parts that tend to
accumulate dust and grease must be cleaned periodically.
The projector will give long and trouble-free service if these simple guidelines are
followed.
To remove dirt from the lenses and filters, use a soft cloth moistened with any
liquid detergent suitable for cleaning glass.
