OPERATING YOUR SCANLITE

SCANLITE ON/OFF SWITCH AND MAINS PLUG

Before connecting the mains plug to the mains socket, ensure that the On/Off switch is in

position

Off: “0” must be visible on the switch (to prevent arcing mains plug contacts).

Then connect the mains cable to the mains socket

=> the fan spins and the cooling system

is active.
Switch the halogen light on, press the On / Off switch to the

On position.

After using the SCANLITE, switch the halogen light off, but do not remove the mains plug

before the fan cooled down the temperature of the SCANLITE.

SCANLITE INTELLIGENT FAN COOLING AND OVERHEAT

PROTECTION

The fan speed is electronically controlled. Close to the on/off switch is a small LED, which

lights up in case of over heating. The overheat protection shuts the Halogen lamp down at

high internal temperature. After cooling down, the Halogen lamp switches on automatically

and the red LED turns off.
