SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

A Word of Caution.

Please remember you will be working with 120 volts and you can suffer electric shock from any exposed lives
wires. So please be careful at all times and behave wisely.
Now you’re MM 200
ensure a safe operation, it is absolutely essential that the installer and user follow the safety instructions and
warning notes written in this user manual. Remember any damage caused by disregarding the manual or not
reading it, will not be covered by warranty and Elektralite (or any of its dealers) will not accept responsibility for
any resulting damage or problems.

If the fixture has been exposed to large environmental temperature changes in transit please do not switch it on
immediately it is unpacked. There maybe internal condensation. So leave MM 200 off until it has reached the
running temperature of the venue.

Elektralite’s MM 200 needs to be grounded. Do NOT cut the ground pin or try to use two-core cable to connect
it to a 120-volt receptacle. To be safe and to work properly you must have this fixture grounded.

A qualified electrician must do any electrical work.

Make sure that the power is only 120 volts. This unit will be damaged if you chose to install it at any other
voltage. In an installation it is always best to check the voltage before connecting. And remember never try to
connect your MM 200 live.
Make sure that the power cable is not damaged and never break off the ground pin.

Always disconnect the power, when MM 200 is not in use or before cleaning it. If you don’t, then you are
wasting the lamp life. Merely closing the shutter just stops the light output, it does NOT TURN OFF THE LAMP.

Never try to disconnect your MM 200 by pulling out the plug by tugging the cord.

Never touch MM 200 when powered up. The lamp produces a considerable amount of heat and as a result the
housing does get hot. You can be burnt if you touch it.

Never look directly into the lamp source. Sensitive person could suffer an epileptic shock.

caution and do not expose yourself to it. When replacing the lamp, do not touch any glass part of the lamp.
Only handle by the silver terminal ends. Do not over tighten when installing a new lamp. Hand tight is more
than enough. PLEASE make sure that power to the fixture is disconnected
