Assembly Instructions

The shade comes pre-assembled. Follow these steps to prepare for installation.

Remove the shade from packaging and lay it on a clean, flat surface.
Gently expand the shade to its full shape if it was compressed.
Locate the metal mounting clip attached inside the top rim of the shade.
Ensure the clip moves freely and is not obstructed.

CAUTION! Do not force or bend the metal clip, as this may affect secure attachment.

Installation Guide

Attaching the shade to your IKEA lamp.

Ensure the lamp is turned OFF, unplugged, and completely cool.
Identify the lamp arm or holder where the shade is designed to attach.
Press the two arms of the metal clip on the shade together to open the clamp.
Position the open clip over the lamp's attachment point (usually a metal bar or ring).
Release the clip arms so they clamp securely onto the lamp.
Gently tug the shade downward to confirm it is firmly attached and level.
Install a compatible bulb (max wattage as per lamp specifications).

Tip: The shade should sit straight and not tilt. Adjust the clip position if needed.

Usage & Operation

How to use your lamp with the REGNSKUR shade.

Plug in the lamp and turn it on using the lamp's switch.
The shade will diffuse light downward and outward, creating ambient lighting.
To adjust light direction, you may gently rotate the entire lamp base (if applicable).
To remove the shade for bulb replacement or cleaning, press the clip arms together and lift the shade off.

WARNING! Never touch the bulb or shade when the lamp is on or immediately after turning off, as they may be hot.

Care & Maintenance

Keeping your lamp shade clean and in good condition.

Unplug the lamp and allow it to cool completely. Remove the shade by pressing the clip arms. Use a soft, dry cloth or a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment to gently remove dust. For stubborn spots, lightly dampen a cloth with water (no detergents) and wipe gently. Allow the shade to air dry completely before reattaching.

CAUTION! Do not immerse in water, use abrasive cleaners, or place in a dishwasher. Do not use while damp.
