Operating Instructions

The Maxim Allure 5-Light Pendant operates like a standard ceiling light fixture. It is controlled by a wall switch connected to its electrical circuit.

• Turning On/Off: Use the wall switch to turn the light fixture on or off.
• Dimming: This fixture is standard dimmable. If connected to a compatible dimmer switch (sold separately), you can adjust the light intensity by operating the dimmer control. Ensure the dimmer switch is rated for halogen or incandescent loads.

Maintenance

Cleaning

• Always disconnect power before cleaning.
• To clean the polished nickel finish, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, polishes, or solvents, as these can damage the finish.
• For glass components, use a mild glass cleaner applied to a soft cloth, then wipe the glass. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the fixture.
• Regular dusting will help maintain the fixture's appearance.

Bulb Replacement

• Ensure the fixture is turned off and has cooled completely before attempting to replace bulbs.
• Gently remove the old G9 Xenon bulb.
• Insert a new G9 Xenon bulb (maximum 40 watts) into the socket. Avoid touching the new bulb directly with bare hands, as oils can reduce bulb life. Use a clean cloth or glove.
