Safety & Handling

• Handle with Care: Never touch the quartz glass with bare hands. Skin oils can cause "hot spots," leading to premature lamp failure. If touched, clean with alcohol and a lint-free cloth.
• Fixture Rating: Use only in fixtures rated for 100W halogen lamps. These units generate significant heat during operation.
• Turn Off Power: Always disconnect power before removing or installing the lamp to avoid electrical shock.
