This fixture is fitted with a DISCHARGE LAMP, which is highly susceptible to damage if improperly handled. NEVER touch the lamp with your bare hands, as the oil from your hands will shorten the life of the lamp. Also, NEVER move the fixture until the lamp has had ample time to cool. Lamps are NOT covered under warranty conditions.
Avoid switching the fixture ON and OFF repeatedly in short intervals, as this will reduce lamp life and intensity. To achieve the intensity associated with discharge lamps, these lamps use gas sealed in a high-pressure environment to emit a brilliant output.
Due to the high pressure involved with the construction of the lamp, the lamp MAY EXPLODE DURING PROLONGED EXTENSIVE USE. This risk is increased with age; added care is encouraged when dealing with older lamps. Thus, the lamp must always be replaced at the end of their recommended duty cycle. Extreme caution should be used when operating this or any fixture fitted with a gas discharge lamp.
U V R A D I A T I O N N O T I C E
This fixture emits intense UV radiation, which is harmful to the eyes and skin. The intense luminance of the lamp can cause severe damage to the retina. NEVER operate this fixture with ANY of the protective covers removed. These covers have been specially designed to shield against UV radiation.
L A M P R E P L A C E M E N T
Please note that due to the nature of the Phillips™ Platinum 5R
Lamp and the optical path of the Elation PLATINUM BEAM 5R
EXTREME fixture, the lamp MUST BE replaced at 2,000 hours.
Use only Genuine Original Phillips™ platinum lamps. Other brand lamps may cause damage and void warranty!

Please note that due to the nature of the Phillips™ Platinum 5R Lamp and the optical path of the Elation PLATINUM BEAM 5R EXTREME fixture, the lamp MUST BE replaced at 2,000 hours.
Use only Genuine Original Phillips™ Platinum 5R Lamps. Other brand lamps may cause damage and void warranty!
INSTALLING OR REPLACING THE LAMP
To ensure a proper/safe lamp change, carefully read all the following instructions.
LAMP PROTECTION CIRCUITRY
Because of the nature of the extreme heat associated with the Phillips™ Platinum 5R lamp and the tight nature of the internal optical system, it is IMPERATIVE that the lamp be replaced every 2,000 Hours. This is done to protect the internal optical system as well as prevent accidental lamp explosion, which could lead to hot glass particles falling from the fixture.
FAILURE TO CHANGE THE LAMP WITHIN 300 HOUR of the 2,000 HOUR RATED LIFE, WILL CAUSE THE FIXTURE TO AUTOMATICALLY SHUT DOWN!
At 2,000 Hours the LCD control display will begin to flash, “Replace The Lamp” and the lamp will flicker for the first five minutes of operation. At this point the lamp has reached the maximum rated life and should be replaced immediately. After the lamp has flickered for about five minutes it should strike normally allowing the fixture to be used temporarily until a replacement lamp can be installed. The fixture will continue to operate for an additional 300 hours, however the “Replace the Lamp” warning will continue to flash in the display. Keep in mind that the flicker protection circuitry will only work for about 300 Hours (lamp clock life of 2,000-2,300 Hours).
After 2,300 Hours the fixture will no longer respond to DMX commands and immediately enter a hibernation mode that will electronically discontinue all fixture functionality with the exception of a few menu commands. The fixture will continue to enter hibernation mode until the lamp is replaced and the lamp clock has been reset. To replace the lamp follow the safety guidelines and procedures listed on the next page.
