► Handle halogen lamp bulbs with care.
The gas inside halogen lamp bulbs is highly pressurized, so dropping, knocking,
or scratching a halogen lamp bulb can cause it to shatter.
► Never hold the halogen lamp bulb with a bare hand, dirty glove, etc. The oil from
your hand could cause the bulb to break the next time the headlamps are operated.
If the glass surface is dirty, it must be cleaned with alcohol, paint thinner, etc.,
and refit it after drying it thoroughly.
