Safety Rules When Replacing High Intensity Discharge (HID) Xenon Lights

CAUTION:

TS266-UN-23AUG88

• Turn light switch OFF and allow bulb to cool before changing bulbs. Leave switch OFF until bulb change is complete.
• High voltage is conducted by electrical connection between lights and ballast unit; this connection must never be disconnected without first disconnecting vehicle wiring harness to ballast.
• 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.
