Halogen bulbs
䳜 Halogen bulbs contain pressurized
gas that will produce flying pieces
of glass if broken.
䳜 Always handle them carefully, and
avoid scratches and abrasions. 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 in a headlight.
䳜 If a bulb becomes damaged or
cracked, replace it immediately
and carefully dispose of it.
䳜 Wear eye protection when chang

down before handling it.
