Proper electrical contact is essential in order to prevent resistance in the positive and negative lamp connectors.

13.Verify that positive lead from lamp to igniter does not touch or run close to any metal parts of lamphouse or mirror.

Leads that are too close to any metal parts will cause arcing during starting pulse, and lamp may not ignite.

Authorized protective clothing must be worn when cleaning lamp.
