  If the hand-held lamp goes off during operation, it could be due to several reasons. First, the hand-held lamp may have overheated, causing the safety thermometer to automatically switch off the tube. In this case, clean the blue filter if necessary, and the lamp will automatically switch back on after a cooling period. Secondly, the metal halide tube may have burnt out, requiring you to replace it following the relevant instructions. Finally, check the cable connections to ensure they are properly connected.

  If the power switch lamp at the front of the control device housing is not on, there are a few potential causes. Ensure that the power cable is properly connected. Also, the fuse may have burnt out, in which case you should contact your appliance retailer to replace it. Finally, there may be a power failure, so check other electrical devices and fuses in your location.
