the bulb. • Leave the lamp switch OFF until the bulb change is complete. • Always wear eye protection when changing a halogen bulb. • Handle the bulb only by its base. Avoid touching the glass. • Keep dirt and moisture off the bulb. • Properly dispose of the used bulb. • Keep halogen bulbs out of the reach of children.
