Replacing the IMB-S3 batteries
Only use the replacement batteries supplied in the Christie Battery Replacement Kit (P/N:
003-006461-XX). Incorrect battery types create an explosion hazard.
Caution! If not avoided, the following could result in permanent loss of data.
• To avoid triggering a tamper condition, follow this procedure exactly. Once triggered, the unit is
unusable and must be returned to Christie.
1. Turn off the light source and allow the projector to cool a minimum of 15 minutes.
2. Disconnect the projector from AC power.
3. Remove the top cover.
4. Remove the high security cover.
5. Remove the card cage cover.
6. Release the security ring and remove it from the projector.
7. Remove the IMB-S3 from the projector.
8. On the IMB-S3, remove the plastic cover on the battery enclosure by removing the two screws.

Remove only one battery before proceeding to the next step. Removing both batteries at the

Steps 9, 10, and 11 are critical. Ensure they are followed exactly to avoid triggering the tamper
condition.
