LAMP INSTALLATION AND REPLACEMENT
The following procedure should be adopted:
A - Ensure the luminaire is electrically isolated from the power supply.
B - WAIT LEAST 5 MINUTES FROM SWITCHING OFF to avoid risk of injury from possible
lamp explosion. Then open the front hinged door holding the lamp assembly.
WARNING: AFTER THE ABOVE MENTIONED TIME THE LAMPS MAY STILL BE VERY HOT,
USE PROPER THERMAL PROTECTION (EG. GLOVES).
C - Check that the new lamps are of the correct type.
D - Replace the lamps taking good note of the following:
do not touch the bulb with bare-hands; oil and grease can contaminate the bulb surface
and then reduce the performance and the lamp life. The plastic cover which protects the
lamp should not be removed until after fitting should the bulb become dirty due to hand
contact or for any other reason, it can be cleaned with a cloth moistened with alcohol.
E - Ensure that any safety device that has been removed is refitted correctly or that the lens
door is securely closed.
