The warranty does not apply to any product where the serial number has been removed or obliterated. The warranty also does not apply to any product sold by a reseller to an end user outside of the country where the reseller is located unless (i) Christie has an office in the country where the end user is located or (ii) the required international warranty fee has been paid.
Only accredited Christie technicians who are knowledgeable about the hazards associated with high-voltage, ultraviolet exposure, and the high temperatures generated by the projector lamp are authorized to assemble, install, and service the projector. In addition, only Christie accredited personnel are authorized to perform security procedures such as marriage.
• DO NOT attempt operation if the AC supply and cord are not within the specified voltage and power range. • Use only the attachments and/or accessories recommended by Christie. Use of others may result in the risk of fire, shock and personal injury.
Any local or federal specifications take precedence over Christie recommendations. • Never attempt to remove the lamp directly after use. Any lamp used in the CP2208 is under high pressure when hot or cold and may explode causing personal injury and /or property damage, and must be handled with great care at all times.
2. Position the projector so it is centered and parallel with the theatre screen. If space is limited, aim the projector slightly off-center and use lens offset to center the image on the screen. CP2208 User Manual 020-101916-02 Rev. 1 (08-2015)
