Installation & Setup

Follow these steps for safe and proper installation.

1. Plan Layout: Decide where to place the string light (e.g., along wall, window frame, shelf). Ensure the power outlet is within reach.
2. Prepare Surface: Clean and dry the mounting surface. Ensure it is smooth and free of dust for adhesive clips.
3. Mount Clips: Peel backing from adhesive clips and press firmly onto surface at desired intervals (approx. every 12-16 inches). Allow adhesive to set for 1 hour before attaching cable.
4. Attach String Light: Gently press the cable into the clips, arranging it in your desired pattern (straight line, wave, etc.). Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable.
5. Connect Power: Plug the adapter into a standard 120V AC wall outlet. Ensure the outlet is easily accessible and not overloaded.
6. Test Operation: Turn on using the switch on the power adapter. All 20 LEDs should illuminate evenly.

3. Setup: Follow the TRÅDFRI system setup guide to pair the driver with your control device.
4. Dimming: Once paired, use the TRÅDFRI remote control or smartphone app to adjust brightness levels smoothly.

Note: Do not connect this string light directly to a standard wall dimmer switch, as this may cause damage or malfunction.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care ensures longevity and safe operation.

1. Cleaning: Unplug from outlet. Wipe the cable and LED bulbs with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use water, liquids, or abrasive cleaners.
2. Storage: If not in use for a long time, unplug and gently coil the string light. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
