WARNING! Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes. Always turn off power at the circuit breaker before beginning any electrical work. The lamp is heavy; ensure the ceiling structure can support its weight.

Tools Required

Gather the following tools before starting:

Phillips screwdriver
Drill (if mounting to concrete ceiling)
Drill bit suitable for wall plugs provided
Wire stripper/cutter
Ladder or stable step stool
Voltage tester (to confirm power is off)

Assembly Instructions

Assemble the lamp components before electrical connection.

Unpack all parts and lay them on a clean, soft surface to avoid scratches.
If the mounting plate is separate, attach it to the main lamp body using the provided screws. Do not fully tighten yet.
Identify the lamp holder(s) for the light bulb(s). Ensure they are securely fixed within the lamp body.
Pass the electrical cord from the lamp body through the center hole of the mounting plate.
Once wires are threaded, tighten all screws on the mounting plate to secure the lamp body.

CAUTION! Handle the lamp shade carefully to avoid bending or damaging the material.

Electrical Installation

POWER MUST BE OFF AT THE BREAKER.

Remove the existing ceiling fixture, if present.
Identify the household electrical wires in the ceiling junction box: Live/Hot (usually black or red), Neutral (usually white), and Ground (usually bare copper or green).
Connect the lamp wires to the household wires using the provided wire connectors (wire nuts):
- Lamp Live (brown or marked L) to Household Live.
- Lamp Neutral (blue or marked N) to Household Neutral.
- Lamp Ground (green/yellow or bare) to Household Ground.
Ensure all connections are tight and secure. Gently tug on each wire to confirm.
Neatly tuck all connected wires into the ceiling junction box.

Mounting to Ceiling

Align the mounting plate with the holes in the ceiling junction box.
Using the provided screws, secure the mounting plate to the junction box. Ensure it is firmly attached and does not wobble.
If mounting to a solid ceiling (concrete) without a junction box, use the provided wall plugs. Mark drill holes, drill, insert plugs, and then screw the mounting plate in place.
Once the plate is secure, lift the main lamp body and hook it onto the plate or align it with the screws. Secure it according to the specific design (often by turning or tightening locking screws).
Install the recommended light bulb(s) (see Specifications). Do not exceed the maximum wattage.
Attach any final decorative covers or diffusers.

Tip: Have a helper hold the lamp during final mounting, as it can be heavy and awkward.

Lamp is unstable or wobbles	Loose mounting	Turn off power. Secure the mounting plate screws and the connection between the lamp body and plate.
Overheating	Bulb wattage too high	Immediately turn off lamp. Let it cool. Replace bulb(s) with ones that do not exceed the maximum wattage specified.
Buzzing sound from dimmer	Incompatible dimmer or bulb	Replace with a dimmer switch designed for the specific bulb type (e.g., LED). Or use non-dimmable bulbs without a dimmer.
