1 Introduction This manual is intended for professionally trained operators of Christie high-brightness projection systems. These operators are qualified to replace the lamp and air filter, but should not attempt to install or service the cinema projector. Only accredited Christie technicians who are knowledgeable about the hazards associated with high-voltage, ultraviolet exposure, and the high temperatures generated by the cinema projector lamp are authorized to assemble, install, and service the cinema projector.
Ensure that you are using a power cord, socket and power plug that meets the appropriate local rating standards. 2) Use only an AC power cord recommended by Christie. Do not attempt operation if the AC supply and cord are not within the specified voltage and power range.
