A - Halogen Bulb

Halogen bulbs (A) contain gas under pressure. Handling a bulb improperly could cause it to shatter into flying fragments. To avoid possible injury:
  • Turn light switch OFF and allow bulb to cool before changing bulbs. Leave switch OFF until bulb change is complete.
  • Wear eye protection when changing bulb.
  • Handle bulb by its base. Wear protective gloves or avoid touching light bulb surface.
  • Use a clean cloth and alcohol to remove any fingerprints from glass bulb before installing. Skin oil deposited on bulb will cause overheating and premature failure.
  • Do not drop or scratch bulb.
  • Keep moisture away from bulb.
  • Do not operate bulb outside of enclosure. Bulb has a high internal pressure and if cracked or broken it could explode and cause injury.
  • Place used bulb in new bulb carton and dispose of properly. Keep out of reach of children.
