Setup and Installation

Safety Precautions:

• Always disconnect power to the fixture before installing or replacing the bulb.
• Allow the old bulb to cool completely before handling. Halogen bulbs can become very hot during operation.
• Avoid touching the glass part of the new bulb directly with bare hands. Oils from your skin can create hot spots, leading to premature failure. Use a clean cloth or gloves.

Installation Steps:

1. Turn off and unplug the device or microscope where the bulb will be installed.
2. Carefully remove the old bulb from its socket.
3. Holding the new KLS JCR bulb by its ceramic base or with a clean cloth, align the two pins of the GZ6.35 base with the corresponding holes in the socket.
4. Gently push the bulb into the socket until it is firmly seated. Do not force it.
5. Once installed, reconnect power and test the bulb.
