1. Prepare for Installation: Turn off the electricity at the main fuse box or circuit breaker. Ensure the power is completely disconnected before proceeding.

4. Attaching the Fixture: Carefully attach the fixture body to the mounted canopy, ensuring all wires are tucked safely inside the junction box.

5. Operating Instructions

This fixture operates like a standard ceiling light. Once installed and wired correctly, it can be controlled by a wall switch (not included). The fixture is compatible with dimmer switches, allowing you to adjust the light output to set the desired mood. Ensure any dimmer switch used is compatible with the type of bulbs installed (e.g., LED compatible dimmers for LED bulbs).

The fixture uses two standard-medium base bulbs, each up to 100 watts, for a total maximum wattage of 200 watts. For energy efficiency, consider using LED bulbs.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your ceiling light.

• Cleaning: Disconnect power before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the metal finish. For the glass shade, a mild glass cleaner can be used, applied to the cloth first, not directly to the shade. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that may damage the finish or glass.
• Bulb Replacement: Ensure power is off before replacing bulbs. Allow old bulbs to cool before removal. Replace with new standard-medium base (E26) bulbs, up to 100 watts each.
• Inspection: Periodically check all connections and mounting hardware to ensure they remain secure.
