DISCHARGE LAMP WARNING:This fixture is fitted with a

discharge lamp, which is highly susceptible to damage if

improperly handled. Never touch the lamp with your bare hands,

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 conditions.

and the optical path of the Platinum Beam 15R it is imperative to replace the lamp

at the rated 2000 hour lamp life!

skin. The intense luminance of the lamp can cause severe damage to the retina. Never

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.

Thus, lamp must always be replaced at the end of their recommended duty cycle.

Extreme caution should be used when operated this or any fixture fitted with a gas

discharge lamp.

Never open this fixture while in use!

During the initial operation of this fixture, a light smoke or smell may emit from the interior

of the fixture. This is a normal process and is caused by excess paint in the interior of the

casing burning off from the heat associated with the lamp and will decrease gradually

over time.

This device falls under protection-class 1. Therefore it is essential that the device be

grounded properly.

All electrical connections should be performed by a qualified electrician.

Be sure the available voltage matches the voltage requirements of the unit.

Be sure the power cord is never crimped or damaged. If the power cord is damaged,

replace it immediately with a new one of similar power rating.

Always disconnect from main power before performing any type of service or any

cleaning procedure.

Only handle the power cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the wire

portion of the cord.

This fixture is designed for use indoors. Use of this fixture outdoors will void the

manufactures warranty.

Please be aware that damages caused by manual modifications to the device are not

subject to warranty.
