MAINTENANCE
3
• Changing the lamp
Undo the wing-nuts (
8) and open the lid
(7) giving access to the lamp compart-
ment. Remove the faulty lamp (9) from
the socket (
10), then take the new lamp
from its pack. Read the "instructions for
use" provided by the lamp manufacturer
carefully, and fit it into the socket (
10),
checking that the tabs are properly posi-
tioned. Replace the lid (7) and tighten the
wing-nuts (8).
• Changing the fuses
Extract the fuse-box (11), taking hold of it
by the side tangs. Replace the blown
fuses with new fuses of the type stated on
the label (12) on the fuse-box (11) and put
the box back in place.
• Routine cleaning
To maintain optimum performance and
efficiency over the long-term, the parts
where dust and grease accumulate must
be cleaned periodically. To remove dirt
from the protective glass (13) of the lamp
and colour filters (14), use a soft cloth
dipped in any window-cleaning liquid.
The inside surface of the cylinder should be cleaned every year, emptying out the
water it contains.
Clean the outside and inside of the cylinder using water with neutral soap only.
Dry with a soft (non abrasive) cloth.
