to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.
• Possible explosion hazard: Always keep in mind the caution below:
C
AUTION
:
Xenon compact arc lamps are highly pressurized. When ignited, the normal operating temperature
of the bulb increases the pressure to a level at which the bulb may explode if not handled in strict accordance
to the manufacturer’s instructions. The bulb is stable at room temperature, but may still explode if dropped
or otherwise mishandled. Whenever the lamp house, containing a xenon bulb lamp, has to be dismantled or
whenever the protective container or cloth has to be removed from the xenon bulb lamp, authorized protective
clothing MUST be worn!
To prevent battery explosion
• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly installed.
• Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
• For disposal of used batteries, always consult federal, state, local and provincial hazardous waste disposal rules and regulations
to ensure proper disposal.
