ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD! Always turn off, disconnect, and disengage all power
sources to the projector before servicing. Failure to comply results in death or
serious injury.

Only Christie accredited service technicians are permitted to open any enclosure
on the projector and only if the AC power has been fully disconnected. Failure to
comply could result in minor or moderate injury.

When removing or installing the Christie IMB, wear an anti-static wrist strap and
follow anti-static protocols. Failure to comply could result in equipment or property
damage.

This document provides information and procedures for replacing the SanDisk CompactFlash (CF) card
with an Advantech CF card on the Christie IMB-S2.

The existing SanDisk CF card in the Christie IMB-S2 can fail when the maximum read-modify-write
cycles are reached. A failed CF card can disrupt playback or make the Christie IMB-S2 unresponsive.

The number of replacement CF cards provided by Christie Digital Systems will match the quantity of
Christie IMB-S2s.

SanDisk CF card replacement is MANDATORY on all Christie IMB-S2s manufactured before

December 2013.
