Halogen Lamp Warning
This fixture is fitted with halogen lamps which are highly suscep-
tible to damage if improperly handled. Never touch lamp with your
bare fingers as the oil from your hands will shorten lamp life. Also,
never move the fixture until the lamps have had ample time to cool.
Remember, lamps are not covered under warranty conditions.
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the internal and exter-
nal optical lenses must be carried out periodically to optimize light
output.
1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the out-
side casing.
2. Use a brush to wipe down the fan grill.
3. Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every
20 days.
4. Clean the internal optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth every
30-60 days.
5. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging your
unit back in.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture
operates (I.E. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew).
