WARNING

exhaust ducts to cool down: RISK OF
BURNS!
126) Changes or repairs to the electrical
system carried out incorrectly and without
due consideration for the technical
specifications of the system may lead to
F1B0153C
malfunctioning and generate a fire hazard.
127) Halogen bulbs contain pressurised
gas. If they break, glass fragments could fly
everywhere.
WARNING
52) Halogen bulbs must be handled by
holding the metallic part only. Touching the
transparent part of the bulb with your
F1B0154C
fingers may reduce the intensity of the
emitted light and even reduce the lifespan
of the bulb. In the case of accidental
contact, rub the lamp with a cloth and
alcohol and leave to dry.
