The photographer should not attempt to make internal repairs.

Consult a dealer for an authorized Photogenic Professional Lighting service agent. This will provide you safety, insure proper operational functions and provide continuation of your warranty.

The technicians find it helpful to have the complete unit to better troubleshoot and evaluate any problems. This includes the light unit, the power cord, the flash tube and the modeling lamp.

For replacing the flashtube or modeling lamp, follow the directions and specifications given earlier in this manual in the setup section.

Before removing the old tubes or installing new tubes, always unplug your PowerLight to discharge the stored energy. Wait approximately 30 seconds for the main capacitors to deplete any residual stored voltage. Never place your fingers or any metal objects into the flash or modeling sockets. Contact with high voltage may result.
