this projector is safety agency approved and is designed for safe and reliable operation. however, safe operation cannot be assured by design alone; installers, maintainers, and users must maintain a safe operating environment for the system. please read through and understand the following warnings and guidelines promoting safe usage of the projector.
always remove the lens when shipping a projector.
never look directly into the projector lens. the extremely high brightness of this projector can cause permanent eye damage.
for protection from ultraviolet radiation, keep all projector shielding intact during operation.
labels and markings
observe and follow all warnings and instructions marked on the projector.
the exclamation point within the equilateral triangle alerts the user to important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the projector.
the lightning flash and arrowhead symbol within the equilateral triangle alerts the user to non-insulated “dangerous voltage” within the projector's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock.
projector location
operate the projector in an environment which meets the operating range specifications in section 6, specifications. 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 to be ceiling mounted, only use a christie-approved ceiling mount fixture.
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.
lamp and filter replacement
lamp: do not operate the bubble lamp for more than the lamp’s 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’s warranty limit also significantly reduces brightness output.
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. allow to cool completely.
the bubble lamp operates at a very high temperature and pressure. failure to allow the lamp to sufficiently cool prior to handling could result in an explosion causing personal injury and/or property damage. after turning the projector off it is important that you wait at least five minutes before unplugging it. this provides enough time for the internal lamp cooling fans to cool the lamp and to automatically shut off. cool completely before handling.

use only lamps supplied by christie.
filter: replace the front filter when you replace the lamp or sooner. if this filter is not replaced, air flow may become restricted and cause the projector to overheat.
see 4.4, replacing the lamp and filter for the complete replacement procedure.
use only filters supplied by christie.
power cord and attachments
only use attachments or accessories recommended by christie, such as the specific power cord supplied. use of other attachments or accessories with this projector may result in the risk of fire, shock or personal injury.
use only the ac power cord supplied. do not attempt operation if the ac supply and cord are not within the specified voltage and power range. see section 6.
do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. locate the projectorhere the cord cannot be abused by persons walking on it or objects rolling over it.
operate the projector at the specified voltage only. do not overload power outlets and extension cords as this can result in fire or shock hazards.
the projector is equipped with a three wire plug having a third (grounding) pin. this is a safety feature. if you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician to have the outlet replaced. do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
ventilation
before unplugging the power cord, make sure the internal lamp cooling fans have shut off. the fans automatically shut off when the projector has adequately cooled down.
slots and openings in the projector provide ventilation. to ensure reliable operation of the projector and to prevent overheating, these openings must never be blocked or covered. the projector should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. the projector should not be placed in an enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided. for best results, ensure that the projector bottom is above any “lip” that may be present on a cart—extend projector feet as necessary.
do not push objects of any kind into the projector through the ventilation openings.they may touch dangerous voltages or short-out components resulting in a fire or shock hazard. do not spill liquids of any kind into the projector. should an accidental spill occur, immediately unplug the projector and have it serviced by a qualified service technician.
servicing
if any of the following conditions exist, immediately unplug the projector from the power outlet and refer service to qualified service personnel.
the power cord has been damaged.
the internal cooling fans do not come on within 2 minutes after the projector is first turned on.
liquid has been spilled into the projector.
the projector has been exposed to excessive moisture.
the projector does not operate normally.
the projector has been dropped or the case has been damaged.
projector performance has deteriorated.
do not attempt to service the projector yourself. all servicing must be performed by a qualified christie service technician only. if replacement parts are required, it is important that only christie-approved parts are used. other parts may result in fire, electric shock or risk of personal injury.
