Lamp failure in Superlux Eye illumination system
Caution:
Do not cover the ventilation grid! For example, drapes could be covering
the grid. This can lead to overheating of the lamp module and to lamp
failure.
Note:
Yellow indicator lamp (4) lights when the lamp has failed, or if the lamp
module is defective. After activation and ignition of the backup lamp, the
yellow indicator lamp goes out again.
Selecting the backup lamp
•
Turn off the suspension system at the power switch before selecting
the backup lamp.
The lamp module contains two xenon lamps. The second lamp is used as
a backup lamp which can be swung into the illumination beam path when
the first lamp fails.
If the first xenon lamp fails, you can open lamp module (2) as follows:
•
Press button (3). The lamp module is slightly ejected.
•
Pull out the lamp module as far as it will go.
•
Turn knob (1) through 180° until it snaps in. This swings the second
xenon lamp (backup lamp) into the beam path.
•
Push the lamp module all the way back into the lamp housing.
•
Turn the suspension system back on at the power switch.
Note:
If the first lamp has failed and the backup lamp is in use (red segment in
knob (1) lights up), make sure to have a backup lamp module ready at
hand as a precaution.
