2. Pull out the fluid tank and remove the cap.

3. Verify that the two plastic hoses attached to the cap are in place and in good

condition.

4. Pour CHAUVET® (PHF or HFG) haze fluid inside the tank, and re-cap.

5. Reinsert the tank.

6.

Make sure that the plastic hose that goes from the cap to the hazer is not bent.

7. Plug in power and wait approx. 2 min. for warm-up to complete.

Fluid Tank Indicator

Lights

Three internal indicator LEDs show the status of the fluid tank, as follows.

• Red - the fluid tank is currently heating up

• Blue - the fluid tank is ready

• Flashing Red/Blue - the fluid tank is actively re-heating while producing

output.

Only use CHAUVET® approved (PHF or HFG) haze fluid. Otherwise, you
