SECTION 1
SAFETY
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USE.
This leaflet contains important safety information.
1.1 Low voltage DC input only. Do not connect to incorrect
supplies (see Specifications).
1.2 Avoid the possibility of water ingress. This could cause the
lamp to rupture forcibly.
1.3 The Paglight is not intended for any use other than video
lighting purposes.
1.4 Do not disassemble the Paglight or any of the lamp holder
units. There are no user-serviceable parts. Incorrect
reassembly may result in a safety hazard.
1.5 Do not operate if the fixed safety glass is cracked or broken.
1.6 Do not leave the Paglight switched on while unattended.
Do not obstruct the cooling vents or operate near combustible materials. Allow the Paglight to cool before storage.
1.7 Always turn-off the Paglight before removing or replacing any
of the plug-in lamp holder units.
1.8 The PowerArc generates high voltages when striking. Do not
insert a damaged or misaligned lamp into the Paglight.
1.9 For optimum performance never handle the lamp’s quartz
envelope directly. Should you inadvertently handle the quartz
2
envelope you must clean it carefully with methylated spirit
or industrial alcohol, using a lint free cloth.
1.10 The LED Dimmer Unit is designed for use only in conjunction
with the 12V Broadcast Paglight. NEVER attempt to run the
unit away from its enclosure.
IMPORTANT: Never stare directly into the emitters when
lit.
For optimum performance never leave the soft acrylic domed
lens, situated at the end of the silver aluminium heat sink,
unprotected and exposed to dust. If the domed lens becomes
dusty, you must clean it carefully with a moistened finger.
Use of a cloth will merely add more dust particles.
1.11 After removing the lamp holder units from the Paglight
always place them in a PAG heat-resistant lamp protector, to
avoid contact and damage to the unit.
