Note It is normal for the SFS-300 to smoke for a few minutes when first used, as the intense heat from the lamp initially burns off manufacturing residues. Smoking for longer than 15 minutes, however, is not normal, and may indicate a malfunction. If so, discontinue use and return to place of purchase. Quartz bulb filaments are fragile and easily broken, especially when hot. Always handle the SFS-300 carefully to avoid shock to the bulb filaments.
Changing the lamp 1. Disconnect unit from power supply. 2. Allow light to cool to room temperature before handling. 3. Remove safety glass by unscrewing the three retaining screws. 4. Remove expired lamp by pulling it straight out of the socket. 5. Insert new lamp in its plastic sleeve by pushing pins straight into the socket (a very tight fit is normal and necessary for proper operation). Then remove plastic sleeve. 6. Replace safety glass.
