Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your lamp. Always disconnect power and allow the lamp to cool completely before performing any maintenance.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the lamp's reflector and glass envelope with a soft, lint-free cloth. If necessary, use a mild glass cleaner applied to the cloth, not directly to the lamp. Ensure no residue remains.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the lamp and its connections for any signs of wear, damage, or discoloration. Replace the lamp if any damage is observed.
• Replacement: The lamp has a rated life of 2000 hours. It is recommended to replace the lamp proactively near the end of its rated life to prevent unexpected failure or reduced performance.
