This fixture is fitted with a discharge lamp which
are highly susceptible to damage if improperly
handled. Never touch the lamps with your bare
fingers 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 condi-
tions.
This unit 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 unit without it's covers, 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 switch 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 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. Extreme caution should be used when operated this or any
fixture fitted with a gas discharge lamp. Never open this unit while in
