Handling Halogen Light Bulbs Safely
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 bulbs to cool before changing. Leave switch off until bulb change is done.
-
Wear eye protection.
-
Handle bulb by its base. Keep bulb oil free; wear gloves to avoid touching glass.
-
Do not drop or scratch bulb. Keep moisture away.
-
Place used bulb in the new bulb's carton and dispose of properly. Keep out of reach of children.
