DISCHARGE LAMP WARNING: This fixture is fitted with a discharge

lamp, which is highly susceptible to damage if improperly handled. Never

touch the lamp with your bare hands, 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.

This fixture emits intense UV radiation, which is harmful to the eyes and skin. The intense

luminance of the lamp can cause severe damage to the retina. Never operate this fixture with

the protective covers removed, these covers have been specially designed to shield against

UV radiation.

Epileptic Warning: Those suffering from epilepsy should avoid looking directly into the lamp

at all times.

Avoid switching the fixture on and off repeatedly in short intervals, as this will reduce lamp life

and intensity.

To achieve the intensity associated with discharge lamps, these lamps use a gas sealed in a

high-pressure environment to emit a brilliant output. Due to the high pressure involved with

the construction of the lamp, the lamp may explode during prolonged extensive use. This risk

is increased with age; added care is encouraged when dealing with older lamps. Thus, lamp

should always be replaced at the end of their recommended duty cycle. Extreme caution

should be used when operated this or any fixture fitted with a gas discharge lamp.

Never open this fixture while in use!

During the initial operation of this fixture, a light smoke or smell may emit from the interior of

the fixture. This is a normal process and is caused by excess paint in the interior of the casing

burning off from the heat associated with the lamp and will decrease gradually over time.

This device falls under protection-class I. Therefore it is essential that the device be grounded

properly.

All electrical connections must performed by qualified personal.

Be sure the available voltage matches the voltage requirements of the unit.

Be sure the power cord is never crimped or damaged. If the power cord is damaged, replace

it immediately with a new one of similar power rating.

Always disconnect from main power before performing any type of service or any cleaning

procedure.

Only handle the power cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the wire portion of

the cord.

Please be aware that damages caused by manual modifications to the device are not

subject to warranty.
