PROTECTION FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK
Warning! Always disconnect from mains supply before replacing the lamp. · Disconnect the fixture from AC power before removing or installing the lamp, fuses, or any part, and when not in use. · Always ground (earth) the fixture electrically. · Use only a source of AC power that complies with local building and electrical codes and has both overload and ground-fault protection.
Introduction
5
· Do not expose the fixture to rain or moisture. · Refer any service operation not described in this manual to a qualified technician.
PROTECTION FROM UV RADIATION AND LAMP EXPLOSION
· Never operate the fixture with missing or damaged lenses and/or covers. · When replacing the lamp, allow the fixture to cool for at least 15 minutes before opening the fixture or removing the lamp. Protect your hands and eyes with gloves and safety glasses. · Do not stare directly into the light. Never look at an exposed lamp while it is lit. · Replace the lamp if it becomes defective or worn out, or before usage exceeds the maximum service life.
PROTECTION FROM BURNS AND FIRE
Danger! Intense heat. Avoid contact by persons and materials. The exterior of the fixture can get very hot - up to 120° C (248° F). Allow the fixture to cool for at least 45 minutes before handling. Prolonged exposure to unshielded lamp can cause eye and skin burns. · Never attempt to bypass the thermostatic switch or fuses. Always replace defective fuses with ones of the specified type and rating. · Keep all combustible materials (for example fabric, wood, paper) at least 1 meter (39 inches) away from the fixture. Keep flammable materials well away from the fixture. · Do not illuminate surfaces within 3 meters (10 feet) of the fixture. · Provide a minimum clearance of 0.1 meters (4 inches) around fans and air vents. · Never place filters or other materials over the lens. · Do not modify the fixture or install other than genuine Martin parts. · Do not operate the fixture if the ambient temperature (Ta) exceeds 40° C (104° F). Protection from injury due to falls · Do not lift or carry the fixture alone. · When suspending the fixture, verify that the structure can hold at least 10 times the weight of all installed devices. · Verify that all external covers and rigging hardware are securely fastened and use an approved means of secondary attachment such as a safety cable. · Block access below the work area whenever installing or removing the fixture.

AC power
Warning! For protection from electric shock, the fixture must be grounded (earthed). The power supply shall have overload and ground-fault protection.
Important! Verify that power supply settings match the local AC supply before use. The MAC 250 Krypton/Entour is factory configured for 230 V / 50 Hz operation. If your AC power supply is different, the fixture must be configured for the local voltage and frequency. Always use the settings that are closest to your AC supply.

2. Remove the 2 Phillips screws in the access cover directly behind the power and data connectors. Lift off the cover. 3. Locate the selection switches. 4. Move the voltage switch to the setting that most closely matches the local AC voltage. If your voltage falls halfway between 2 settings, select the higher voltage. For example, if the AC voltage is 220 V, use the 230 V setting instead of 210 V. 5. Move the frequency switch to the setting that matches the local AC frequency: 50 or 60 Hz. 6. Replace the cover.
INSTALLING A PLUG ON THE POWER CABLE
