flying pieces of glass if broken.
• Always handle them carefully,

and avoid scratches and abra-
sions. If the bulbs are lit, avoid
contact with liquids. Never

touch the glass with bare
hands. Residual oil may cause
the bulb to overheat and burst

when lit. A bulb should be
operated only when installed
