Warning

Unpacking Instructions

Immediately upon receiving this product, carefully unpack the carton and check the contents to ensure
that all parts are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the dealer immediately and
retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damaged from shipping or the carton itself
shows signs of mishandling. Save the carton and all packing materials. In the event that a fixture must be
returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the original factory box and packing.

LED Expected Lifespan

LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time. HEAT is the dominant factor that leads to the acceleration
of this decline. Packaged in clusters, LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in ideal or singular
optimum conditions. For this reason, when all color LEDs are used at their fullest intensity, life of the LEDs is
significantly reduced. If improving the lifespan is of higher priority, place care in providing for lower
operational temperatures. This may include climatic-environmental and the reduction of overall
projection intensity.

Safety Instructions

Every person involved with the installation, operation and maintenance of this device has to:

Before the initial start-up, please make sure that there is no damage caused by transportation.

not function at all

No power to the fixture

• Check if power is switched on and
cables are plugged in

No light or lamp
cuts out
intermittently

Fixture is too hot

• Allow the fixture to cool down

• Make sure that the front lens is not

blocked

• Turn up the air conditioning

LEDs damaged

• Disconnect the fixture and return it
to your dealer

The power supply settings do not
match local AC voltage and

and correct if necessary

Maintenance

The operator has to make sure that safety-related and machine-technical installations are to be
inspected by an expert after every year in the course of an acceptance test.
The operator has to make sure that safety-related and machine-technical installations are to be
inspected by a skilled person once a year.

The following points have to be considered during the inspection:

01) All screws used for installing the device or parts of the device have to be tightly connected and

must not be corroded.

02) There may not be any deformations on housings, fixations and installation spots.

03) Mechanically moving parts like axles, eyes and others may not show any traces of wearing.

04) The electric power supply cables must not show any damages or material fatigue.

The Safeled Emergencylight requires almost no maintenance. However, you should keep the unit clean.
Otherwise, the fixture’s light-output will be significantly reduced. Disconnect the mains power supply, and
then wipe the cover with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in liquid. Wipe lens clean with glass cleaner and
a soft cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents.
Please clean internal components once a year with a light brush and vacuum cleaner.
Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the DMX and audio connections
with a damp cloth. Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying
electric power.

Troubleshooting

This troubleshooting guide is meant to help solve simple problems.
If a problem occurs, carry out the steps below in sequence until a solution is found. Once the unit
operates properly, do not carry out following steps.

No Light

If the light effect does not operate properly, refer servicing to a technician.
Suspect two potential problem areas as: the power supply and the LEDs.

01) Power supply. Check that the unit is plugged into an appropriate power supply.

02) The LEDs. Return the Safeled to your Showtec dealer.

03) If both of the above appear to be O.K., plug the unit in again.

04) If you are unable to determine the cause of the problem, do not open the Safeled, as this may

damage the unit and the warranty will become void.

05) Return the device to your Showtec dealer.
