Operation

To operate the lamp, plug it into a wall outlet. Use the in-line switch on the power cord to turn the lamp ON or OFF. The lamp shade may be gently adjusted to direct light as needed. For optimal performance and energy savings, use an LED bulb.

Tip: For ambient lighting, point shade upward. For task lighting, adjust shade downward.

Care & Maintenance

Unplug the lamp before any cleaning or maintenance.

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the base and stem with a soft, dry cloth. For the fabric shade, use a soft brush or vacuum with a brush attachment to remove dust. Do not use liquids, solvents, or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Bulb Replacement: Allow bulb to cool completely. Unscrew the old bulb and screw in a new compatible bulb (max 13W).
