Electrical Installation

Connect fixture wires to house wires: Live to Live (Brown to Brown/Black), Neutral to Neutral (Blue to Blue/White), Ground to Ground (Green/Yellow to Green/Yellow or metal junction box).
Use provided wire connectors. Twist wires together securely and screw on connectors.
Neatly tuck all connected wires into the junction box.

Mounting to Ceiling/Wall

Secure the fixture to the junction box.

Align the mounting bracket (attached to fixture) with the holes on the junction box.
Use the provided screws to secure the bracket firmly to the junction box.
Ensure the fixture is stable and does not wobble.
If applicable, attach the fixture canopy or cover plate to conceal the junction box and wires.

Tip: A helper can hold the fixture in place while you secure it.

Bulb Replacement

Use only the recommended bulb type to avoid damage and overheating.

Ensure the fixture is cool and power is turned off.
Gently remove the shade/diffuser (usually twists counter-clockwise or is held by clips).
Unscrew the old bulb and dispose of it properly.
Screw in the new bulb. Do not exceed the maximum wattage indicated on the fixture label (e.g., Max 60W). LED or CFL bulbs are recommended for energy efficiency.
