4. Installation Steps

Step 1: Fix the String Lights

Hang or fasten the string lights in the desired position according to your layout. Use hooks, ties, clips, or other suitable tools for fixation. Apply moderate force to avoid squeezing or pulling the wire. Ensure the wire is laid out naturally without excessive bending, and keep the distance between lamp holders even for a better decorative effect.

Step 2: Connect Power

After confirming all installation steps are completed and the string lights are securely fixed, insert the plug of the string lights slowly into a compatible standard power socket (e.g., 220V EU standard or 110V US standard, depending on your product variant). Make sure the plug is fully inserted for good contact with no looseness.
