Replacement procedures should be performed on an as-needed basis.
Components that need periodic replacement include the exposure
lamps and imaging guides.
The exposure system consists of two special, long-life fluorescent
lamps. The lamps slide in and out of the scanner for easy lamp
replacement:
Always replace both lamps at the same time. If both lamps are not
replaced, exposures may not be acceptable.
Use recommended lamps only. Other lamps may result in
unacceptable image quality.
Change the lamps every 500 hours, when required for error recovery, or
when image quality is poor.
WARNING: Make sure the lamps are cool before attempting to
remove them from the lamp socket holder.
To change the lamps:
1. Turn the power switch off.
2. Open the side access door.
3. Release the rear lamp cable connector from the scanner electrical
system.
