Safety Warnings
WARNING • If the projector is mounted on the projector’s arm, the manufacturer recommends contacting
your authorized SMART reseller to exchange the lamp.
• Uncovering the lamp while the projector is mounted on a projector’s arm might lead to
product damage or personal injury from falling pieces of glass if the lamp is broken.
• Remove the projector from the projector’s arm before servicing the lamp. Complete the
procedure described in this document before following the instructions included in your
replacement lamp box.
• Avoid turning off the projector during the lamp ignition phase as this may lead to premature
lamp failure. Before turning the projector off, keep the lamp on for a minimum of 15 minutes
after turning it on to preserve the lamp life.
• This projector detects its own remaining lamp life. Replace the lamp when lamp life warning
messages appears.
• When the lamp is approaching the end of its life, the message “Lamp is approaching the end
of its useful life in full power operation” appears on the screen. Contact your
authorized SMART reseller or service center to change the lamp as soon as possible.
• Refer to the safety warnings and precautions published by the projector manufacturer.
• Never replace the lamp assembly with a previously-used lamp assembly.
• To prevent premature lamp failure or exposure to mercury, always handle the fragile lamp
assembly with care. Use gloves when touching the lamp. Do not touch the lamp with
your fingers.
• Do not attempt to service the projector other than performing routine lamp replacement.
Service should be performed only by an authorized service provider. Other than the lamp
module, there are no user-serviceable parts inside the unit.
• Replacing the lamp in a boom-mounted projector might result in a fall or injury.
• Do not remove any screws other than those specified in the lamp replacement instructions.
• The lamp used in the UF55/UF55w projector contains mercury. Recycle or dispose of it as
hazardous waste, in accordance with local regulations.
• If you continue to use the projector after the replacement message appears, the lamp might
shatter or burst, scattering glass throughout the projector head.
• If the lamp has shattered or burst, do not touch the glass fragments because they might
cause injury. Leave and then ventilate the area where the lamp shattered or burst. Wash
your hands thoroughly if you have come into contact with lamp debris. Thoroughly clean the
area around the projector, and discard any edible items placed in that area because they
might be contaminated.
• If the lamp has shattered or burst, call an authorized SMART reseller for instructions.
Do not attempt to replace the lamp.
• Wear protective eyewear while changing the lamp. Failure to do so can cause injury or loss
of eyesight if the lamp shatters or bursts.
• Cleaning a boom-mounted projector may result in a fall or injury.

WARNING • Use only replacement lamps approved by SMART Technologies. Contact your authorized
SMART reseller for replacement parts.
• Turn the projector off and wait 30 minutes for the lamp to cool completely before removing
the old lamp assembly.
• Do not stare (or allow children to stare) directly into the beam of light created by the

• If you remove the bolt supporting the limit strap, the projector’s arm will be free to swing.
Make sure that the bolt is tightened, and never remove it from the unit without supporting the
projector’s arm first.
• Two people are required to mount the projector and the interactive whiteboard on a wall
because they might be too heavy for one person to maneuver onto their
wall-mounting brackets.
• Climbing on the interactive whiteboard or projector arm could result in personal injury or
product damage. Do not climb on, hang from or suspend objects from the UF55/UF55w
projector’s arm.
• Make sure that an electrical socket is near to your SMART product and remains easily
accessible during use.
• Two people are required to re-mount the projector.

environmental requirements.
SMART Board 600i3 interactive whiteboard systems can operate in a temperature range of 41°F to 95°F
(5°C to 35°C) from sea level to an altitude up to 6000' (0 m to 1829 m) and in a temperature range of
41°F to 86°F (5°C to 30°C) from 6000' to 9800' (1829 m to 2987 m). The product can withstand storage
temperatures from -40°F to 122°F (-40°C to 50°C).
Humidity
SMART Board 600i3 interactive whiteboard systems can operate between 30% and 70% humidity,
non-condensing. Humidity above 80% might cause slight wrinkling in the sheet of the SMART Board 600 series
interactive whiteboard. The wrinkles disappear once the humidity lowers.
Water and Fluid Resistance
SMART Board 600i3 interactive whiteboard systems are for indoor use only and do not meet any
salt-spray or water ingress requirements. Do not pour or spray any liquids directly onto the interactive
whiteboard, the UF55/UF55w projector or any of its sub-components. These liquids might get into areas where
they could damage sensitive electronic components. Refer to the chapter on maintenance (page 33) for detailed
instructions on cleaning your system’s components.
Dust and Scratching
SMART Board 600i3 interactive whiteboard systems are for use in office and classroom environments and are
not for industrial use, where heavy dust and pollutants can cause malfunctions or impaired operation.The
design is for pollution degree 1 (P1) as per EN61558-1, which is defined as “No pollution or only dry
non-conductive pollution.”
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
SMART Board 600i3 interactive whiteboard systems meet the requirements of EN61000-4-2 severity level 4 for
direct and indirect ESD. No malfunction or damage up to 8kV (both polarities) with a 330 ohm, 150 pF probe
(air discharge). Unmated connectors meet 4kV (both polarities) for direct (contact) discharge.
Cables
All SMART Board 600i3 interactive whiteboard system cables should be shielded, to prevent potential accidents
and degraded video and audio quality.
CAUTION • Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location.
When the unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may condense on the
lens and crucial internal parts. Allow the system to stabilize to room temperature before
operation to prevent possible damage to the unit.
• In a location over 6000' (1828.8 m) altitude, the air is thin and cooling efficiency is reduced,
so use the projector with the fan mode set to High.
• Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause a
malfunction and shorten the life of the projector.

Locate a wall with a flat, regular surface and minimum clearance to accommodate your interactive whiteboard
system. Make sure that the UF55/UF55w projector and the SMART Board interactive whiteboard are installed on
the same flat surface. For best presentation alignment, SMART recommends that you mount your interactive
whiteboard system in a location that is central to your audience’s viewing direction. For mobile installation or
adjustable installation options, contact your authorized SMART reseller. If the mounting surface is slightly
irregular or the interactive whiteboard system cannot be directly mounted on a stud, consult document 119764
on the SMART Technical Support website.
Recommended Mounting Heights
SMART includes a mounting template with each of its SMART Board 600i3 interactive whiteboard systems. If
you lose this template, contact your authorized SMART reseller.Using this template ensures that you:
– Mount the UF55/UF55w projector at a safe height for head space clearance, while maintaining enough
space for airflow and installation access above the unit
– Position the projector at the correct height above the 600 series interactive whiteboard to make sure
that the projected image aligns with the touch screen
Dimensions on the template recommend a distance from the floor that is suitable for adults of average height.
Although you should consider the general height of your user community when you choose a position for the
interactive whiteboard, consult your local regulations before mounting the unit.
WARNING
Using the UF55/UF55w projector system near a TV or radio may cause interference to the
images or sound. If this happens, move the TV or radio away from the projector.
When mounting the projector on a framed wall, you must attach both the mounting bracket and
safety tether to a stud to safely support the projector’s weight. If you use only drywall anchors,
the drywall can fail, resulting in product damage and possible personal injury.
If you remove the bolt supporting the limit strap, the projector boom will be free to swing. Make
sure that the bolt is tightened, and never remove it from the unit without supporting the projector
boom first.
