Replacing Bulb:
To prevent a possible electrical short circuit, switch off lamp prior to replacing a bulb. When replacing bulbs,
install only 12 volt bulbs with the specified watt rating. When replacing halogen bulbs do not touch glass
portion of bulb with bare hands. Use plain paper or a clean cloth.
Warning !
Halogen lamps contain pressurized gas. A bulb can explode if you:
•
•
•
touch or move it when hot,
drop the bulb,
scratch the bulb.
Wear eye and hand protection.
