This fixture is fitted with a DISCHARGE LAMP, which is highly
susceptible to damage if improperly handled. NEVER touch the
lamp with your bare hands, as the oil from your hands will shorten
the life of the lamp. Also, NEVER move the fixture until the lamp
has had ample time to cool. Lamps are NOT covered under
warranty conditions. Avoid switching the fixture ON and OFF
repeatedly in short intervals, as this will reduce lamp life and
intensity. To achieve the intensity associated with discharge
lamps, these lamps use gas sealed in a high-pressure
environment to emit a brilliant output.
Due to the high pressure involved with the construction of the lamp, the lamp MAY
EXPLODE DURING PROLONGED EXTENSIVE USE. This risk is increased with age;
added care is encouraged when dealing with older lamps. Thus, the lamp must always
be replaced at the end of their recommended duty cycle. Extreme caution should be
used when operating this or any fixture fitted with a gas discharge lamp.

This fixture emits intense UV radiation, which is harmful to the
eyes and skin. The intense luminance of the lamp can cause
severe damage to the retina. NEVER operate this fixture with
ANY of the protective covers removed. These covers have been
specially designed to shield against UV radiation.

Please note that due to the nature of the Philips™ Platinum
21R Lamp and the optical path of the fixture, the lamp MUST
BE replaced at 1,500 hours.
Use only Genuine Original Philips™ Platinum 21R Lamps.
Other brand lamps may cause damage and void warranty!
