ventilation can cause the unit to overheat. This will shorten the lamp
life and could damage the unit. DAMAGE TO THE UNIT BECAUSE OF
BLOCKED AIR VENTS IS NOT COVERED UNDER OUR WARRANTY!

6000 Series Warranty
Should any 6004 / 6004-AS component fail during the initial three (3) years
of recommended use from the date of installation, Fiberstars will replace the
failed component(s) without charge. At anytime after the initial three (3) year
period, Fiberstars will replace the failed component(s) for a nominal charge.
The nominal charge will be based on 50% (fifty percent) of the manufacturer’s
suggested retail price of the component at the time of replacement. The failed
component(s) must be returned to Fiberstars, or any Fiberstars Authorized
Service Center.
This warranty applies only to the original owner for as long as they own the
6004 / 6004-AS illuminator. This warranty is non-transferrable.
Lamp "Restrike"
When turning the system off and then turning it immediately
back on, it may take 1 to 3 minutes before the lamp comes
back on.
This process allows the lamp to cool down and then restart.
This is a normal function of the Metal-Halide lamp system that
the Fiberstars 6004 / 6004-AS illuminator uses.
