4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to safely install your linear halogen bulb:

1. Turn Off Power: Locate the light fixture's power switch and turn it off. For added safety, switch off the circuit breaker supplying power to the fixture.
2. Allow Cooling: If replacing an old bulb, wait for it to cool down completely before touching it.
3. Remove Old Bulb (if applicable): Carefully remove the old bulb from the fixture. Linear halogen bulbs typically have spring-loaded contacts. Gently push one end of the bulb towards the opposite contact and then pull it out.
4. Insert New Bulb: Holding the new AIRAM bulb with a clean cloth or gloves, align one end of the bulb with one of the R7s contacts in the fixture. Gently push the bulb towards that contact, compressing the spring, and then guide the other end into the opposite contact. Ensure both ends are securely seated.
5. Restore Power: Once the bulb is securely in place, restore power to the fixture at the circuit breaker and then turn on the light switch.

5. Operating Instructions

The AIRAM 79W 80mm Linear Halogen Bulb operates immediately upon receiving power. Simply use the light switch connected to your fixture to turn the bulb on or off. No special operating procedures are required.

6. Maintenance

Minimal maintenance is required for your halogen bulb:

• Cleaning: If the bulb becomes dusty, ensure the power is off and the bulb is cool. Gently wipe the glass with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners.
• Replacement: Replace the bulb when it reaches the end of its lifespan or fails. Refer to the installation section for replacement instructions.

7. Troubleshooting

If your AIRAM halogen bulb is not functioning correctly, consider the following:

• Bulb Does Not Light:
  • Check if the power switch is on.
  • Verify that the circuit breaker for the fixture is not tripped.
  • Ensure the bulb is correctly and securely seated in the fixture's contacts.
  • The bulb may have reached the end of its life and needs replacement.
• Flickering Light:
  • Check for loose connections in the fixture or bulb contacts.
  • Ensure the bulb is fully compatible with any dimmer switches in use.

If problems persist after checking these points, consult a qualified electrician.
