Setup and Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation:
- Prepare for Installation: Turn off power at the main circuit breaker. Ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and structurally sound.
- Attach Mounting Plate: Secure the mounting plate to the junction box using the provided screws. Ensure the plate is level.
- Wire Connections: Carefully connect the fixture's wires to your household wiring according to standard electrical codes (black to black, white to white, ground to ground). Use wire nuts to secure connections.
- Mount Fixture Body: Carefully align the fixture body with the mounting plate and secure it with the provided screws.
- Install Glass Shades: This fixture features two glass shades for up and down lighting. Ensure the glass shade for the upper bulb is installed correctly, and the lower glass shade is also properly seated.
- Insert Bulbs: Screw in two E26/Medium Base bulbs (max 40W each) into the sockets. LED bulbs are recommended for energy efficiency.
- Restore Power: Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker.
Important Installation Note: Please ensure that the up and down glass shade is installed in the correct sequence. A word of "UP" on the back mounting plate needs to face upwards, and a water leakage hole under the mounting plate needs to face downwards to ensure proper drainage and weather resistance.
