6. Maintenance
6.1 Bulb Replacement
This light set uses incandescent mini bulbs. If a bulb burns out, the rest of the string should remain lit due to shunt technology. However, it is recommended to replace burnt-out bulbs promptly to maintain the aesthetic and prolong the life of the remaining bulbs.
- Unplug the light set from the power outlet before attempting any bulb replacement.
- Gently pull the burnt-out bulb straight out from its socket.
- Insert a new spare bulb (provided with the set) into the empty socket, ensuring it is fully seated.
- Plug the light set back in to test.
6.2 Fuse Replacement
If the entire light string does not illuminate, a fuse may have blown. The fuse is typically located in the plug.
- Unplug the light set from the power outlet.
- Slide open the fuse access cover on the plug (usually a small sliding door on the side or top).
- Carefully remove the old fuse(s).
- Insert new spare fuse(s) of the correct rating (check the plug for fuse specifications, typically 3 Amp, 125 Volt).
- Close the fuse access cover.
- Plug the light set back in to test.
6.3 Cleaning and Storage
- Cleaning: Disconnect from power. Wipe the lights and wires with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: When not in use, carefully coil the light string to prevent tangling and damage. Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep in original packaging or a protective container.
