6. Changing bulbs
In order to change the bulb, the following equip-
ment is also required:
1 Bulb, 12 V/21 W, socket BA15S
1 Screwdriver
1 Piece of sandpaper
1 Soldering iron
Solder
Unscrew the back of the housing.
Unsolder the bulb.
Sand down the contact surfaces where the
wires are to be soldered to the new bulb and
tin them with solder.
Set the bulb in position and solder it in place.
Test the lamp by applying a voltage of 12 V.
Screw the housing back together.
7. Disposal
Packaging should be
disposed of at local re-
cycling centres.
Should the equipment
need to be scrapped, it
must not be disposed of
in normal household
waste. Local regulations
for the disposal of elec-
trical equipment should
be observed.
