GENERAL GUIDELINES
NEVER OPEN THIS FIXTURE WHILE IN USE!
During the initial operation of this fixture, a light smoke or smell may emit from the
interior of the fixture. This is a normal process and is caused by excess paint in the
interior of the casing burning off from the heat associated with the lamp and will
decrease gradually over time.
This fixture is a professional lighting effect designed for INDOOR / DRY LOCATIONS
ONLY on stage, in nightclubs, theatres, etc.
Please make sure there are NO FLAMMABLE MATERIALS close to the fixture while
operating, to prevent any fire hazard.
The fixture must be installed in a location with adequate ventilation, at least 1.5
feet (.5m) from adjacent surfaces. Be sure no air ventilation slots are blocked.
DO NOT attempt installation and/or operation without knowledge how to do so.
DO NOT permit operation by persons who are not qualified to operate this type
of fixture. Most damages are the result of operations by nonprofessionals.
Consistent operational breaks may ensure the fixture will function properly for
many years to come.
DO NOT shake fixture, avoid brute force when installing and/or operating fixture.
Always install the fixture with an appropriate safety cable. When installing the
fixture in a suspended environment, always use mounting hardware that is no less
than M10 x 25 mm, also be sure the hardware is insert in the pre-arranged screw
holes in the bracket of the fixture.

DISCHARGE LAMP WARNING
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.

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 35
lamp and the tight nature of the internal optical system, it is IMPERATIVE that the
lamp be replaced every 750 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 AT THE 750 HOUR RATED LIFE,
WILL CAUSE THE FIXTURE TO AUTOMATICALLY SHUT DOWN!
At 750 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 750 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.
