Controls and Operation

Primary controls are located on the lamp base.

On/Off Switch: Mechanical switch on the base. Flip to turn the lamp on or off.

Touch Dimmer: Located on the base or stem. Touch once to turn on/off. Touch and hold to adjust brightness through multiple levels (Low, Medium, High). The lamp will cycle and then turn off at the end of the cycle.

Adjustment Points: The gooseneck arm can be bent by hand. The lamp head can be tilted and swiveled.

Adjusting the Lamp

To achieve the best lighting for your task.

  1. For reading: Position the lamp head approximately 40-50 cm (16-20 inches) from the reading material, angled to avoid glare.
  2. For desk work: Adjust the arm so the light shines evenly across your workspace without casting a shadow from your hands.
  3. For ambient light: Point the head towards a wall or ceiling to create indirect, softer light.

Tip: Avoid looking directly at the LED light source when it is on.

Replacing the Light Source

This lamp uses an integrated, non-replaceable LED module.

  1. The LED light source is built into the lamp head and is not designed to be replaced by the user.
  2. The LED has a very long lifespan (typically 25,000 hours).
  3. If the light fails before the end of its expected life and the lamp is under warranty, contact IKEA customer service.
  4. Do not attempt to open the lamp head, as this will void the warranty and may cause electric shock.

WARNING! Never disassemble the lamp head. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

Safety Information

Care & Cleaning

  1. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the metal base, arm, and plastic shade.
  2. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  3. Ensure no moisture enters any openings or the electrical parts.
  4. Allow the lamp to dry completely before plugging it in again.

CAUTION! Never immerse the lamp in water or other liquids.
