Safety Precautions
WARNING
5 Heat from the illuminator
During and immediately after a period of
illumination, the lamp and surrounding areas
(including the lamp house) are very hot if the light
source of the illumination device is a mercury lamp.
● Do not touch the lamp or surrounding areas
during or immediately after a period of
illumination. There is a risk of burn if you touch
the hot area.
● Always attach the lamp house cover when using
this product.
● Make sure the lamp and surrounding areas have
cooled sufficiently (which may take
approximately 30 minutes) before attempting to
replace the lamp.
● Do not place fabric, paper, or highly flammable
volatile materials (i.e. gasoline, petroleum
benzene, paint thinner, and alcohol) near the
lamp house while the lamp is on or for about
thirty minutes after it was turned off. Because
the lamp is very hot, ignition or fire may be
induced.
