Halogen lamps must be handled holding
the metallic part only. Touching the trans-
parent part of the bulb with your fingers
may reduce the intensity of the light emitted and
even compromise the longevity of the bulb itself. In
the event of accidental contact, wipe the bulb with
an alcohol-soaked cloth and allow to dry.
Changes or repairs to the electrical system
(electronic control units) carried out in-
correctly and without due consideration for the
technical specifications of the system can lead to
malfunctioning and generate a fire hazard.
WARNING
Halogen lamps contain gas under pres-
sure. If they break, glass fragments could
fly everywhere.
