Replacing the Lamp
To Determine Whether to Replace the Lamp
If the lamp does not come on when you turn the power switch on, verify all of the following
things before replacing the lamp.
• The probe is properly latched in the handset.
• The lamp was correctly installed.
• The system was not turned on too quickly after being turned off. (Leave the system off
for at least 15 seconds so that it can complete its shutdown sequence. Then turn it
back on.)
• The system is not too hot. (The lamp shuts down in over-temperature conditions.)
• The power switch’s green LED lights up when the switch is on. If not, see “Power
Problems” on page124.
