Uneven heating
Ensure the lamp is positioned correctly above the food to provide even coverage. Check for any obstructions blocking the heat from reaching certain areas. Make sure the lamp is the correct wattage for the size of the food area it is intended to heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the heat lamp is securely installed in a compatible fixture designed for R7S bulbs. The R7S connection requires the lamp to be inserted into the socket and potentially secured with clips or screws depending on the fixture design. Always ensure the power is off before installation or removal.
Compatibility: This lamp is compatible with fixtures specifically designed to accept R7S type bulbs. The fixture must also be rated for a 500W incandescent or halogen lamp. Verify the physical dimensions of the R7S bulb (220mm length) fit within the protective housing of the fixture.
Care: Before cleaning, always allow the lamp to cool down completely and disconnect power. Clean the exterior of the lamp and fixture with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the lamp's coating or the fixture. Regularly check the R7S connection for any signs of corrosion or damage.
