HALOGEN LAMP 

W

ARNING!

This fixture is fitted with a halogen lamp which is highly susceptible to 

damage if improperly handled. Never touch the lamp with your bare 

fingers

 as

 the

 oil

 from

 your

 hands

 will

 shorten

 the

 lamp

 life.

 Never

 

install, mount, or place this fixture in areas prone to heavy vibration. 

Also, never move the fixture until the lamp has had ample time to cool. 

Remember

, lamps are not covered under warranty conditions.
