5 Maintenance
Installers, service trained operators and all other users must maintain a safe operating environment at all
times. Read through this section in its entirety and understand all warnings and precautions before
attempting to operate this projector. Refer to Section 1.2 Safety Warnings and Guidelines.
5.1

Projector Location

Operate the projector in an environment that meets the operating range specifications in Section
tions. Do not operate the projector close to water, such as near a swimming pool.
Do not place the projector on an unstable cart, stand or table. If the projector is going to be ceiling mounted,
only use the Christie approved ceiling mount fixture designed for your projector.
A projector and cart combination should be used with care. Sudden stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces
may cause the projector and cart combination to overturn.

5.1.1 Lamp and Filter Replacement

Lamp
Do not operate the lamp for more than the warranty limit; risk of the lamp shattering increases as a result of
changes in the quartz glass that occur with use. Operation beyond the lamp warranty limit also significantly
reduces brightness output.

Wait approximately 5 minutes after powering down the projector to allow the lamp to
cool sufficiently before removing.
Never attempt to remove the lamp housing directly after use. The lamp is under great
pressure when hot and may explode, causing personal injury and/or property damage.
Use only lamps supplied by Christie.
Choose the correct wattage lamp supplied by Christie. See Table 5.1. Read the lamp
replacement procedure in its entirety before proceeding.
A Christie accredited service technician must perform lamp replacement.
Cool the lamp completely and handle by the housing only.
Do not touch the glass window of the lamp. Fingerprints left on the surface can lead to
an intense accumulation of heat called a "hotspot," which could potentially result in
lamp failure. It is recommended you wear a face shield when working with the lamp.
