WARNING! Always disconnect the lamp from the power outlet before assembly, installation, or cleaning. Ensure the lamp base is compatible and rated for the bulb wattage to be used with this shade. Do not use with bulbs exceeding the maximum wattage indicated on the shade or its label.

Assembly Instructions

Assemble the shade before attaching it to the lamp base.

Unfold the Shade: Gently open the lamp shade to its full shape.
Attach the Frame: If the frame is separate, align it with the top opening of the shade. The frame typically clips or screws into pre-formed holes or a wire structure within the shade. Secure it firmly but do not overtighten.
Check Stability: Ensure the shade is evenly shaped and sits securely on its frame without sagging or twisting.

CAUTION! Handle the shade material carefully to avoid tearing, especially if it is made of paper or thin fabric.

Installation on Lamp Base

Follow these steps to install the assembled shade onto your IKEA lamp base.

Power Off: Ensure the lamp is unplugged and the bulb is cool to the touch.
Remove Old Shade (if applicable): Unscrew or unclip any existing shade from the lamp harp or socket.
Position New Shade: Align the mounting ring of the JAKOBSBYN shade with the lamp's harp or fitting.
Secure the Shade: Most IKEA shades use a simple push-and-twist or screw-on mechanism. Rotate the shade clockwise until it feels snug and secure. Do not force it.
Install Bulb: Insert a compatible bulb of the correct type and wattage through the bottom opening of the shade. Do not exceed the maximum wattage.
Final Check: Ensure the shade is straight and level. Plug in the lamp and test the light.

Tip: For pendant lamps, installation may involve attaching the shade to a ceiling canopy. Refer to your specific lamp base instructions.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your lamp shade.

Cleaning: Always unplug the lamp first. Use a soft, dry cloth or a duster to gently remove dust. For fabric shades, a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment can be used on a low setting.
Stains: Do not use water, liquid cleaners, or chemicals, as they may damage the material or cause stains. Spot cleaning is not recommended for most paper/fabric shades.
Bulb Replacement: Allow the bulb to cool completely before replacing. Ensure the new bulb does not touch the inner surface of the shade, especially with higher-wattage or halogen bulbs, to prevent scorching.

CAUTION! Never immerse the shade in water. Keep away from direct heat sources and excessive moisture to prevent warping or fading.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Possible Cause	Corrective Action
Shade wobbles or is crooked	Not securely attached; frame bent	Turn off power. Re-seat the shade on the base, ensuring it clicks or screws into place fully. Gently reshape the frame if bent.
Shade feels hot to the touch	Bulb wattage too high	Immediately turn off the lamp. Let it cool. Replace the bulb with one that meets or is below the maximum wattage rating.
Light appears dim or uneven	Shade color/material is very dark or dense; bulb issue	This may be normal for the shade design. Try a brighter bulb (within wattage limit) or a bulb with higher lumens (e.g., LED equivalent).
Shade will not attach to base	Incompatible lamp base	Verify that your lamp base is designed to work with the JAKOBSBYN shade. Check IKEA product compatibility information.
Discoloration or scorch marks	Bulb too hot/too close; prolonged use	Replace bulb with a lower-wattage or cooler-running LED bulb. Ensure there is adequate air space between the bulb and shade.
