1. Setup and Installation
Important Safety Information: Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or a person with experience in electrical wiring. Always turn off the main power supply at the circuit breaker before beginning any electrical work. Ensure the mounting surface can support the weight of the fixture (approximately 37.5 pounds).
1.1 Unpacking
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect the fixture for any damage. Keep all packaging materials until installation is complete and the fixture is confirmed to be working correctly.
1.2 Components Check
Verify that all parts listed in the instruction manual are present. Typically includes the fixture body, mounting bracket, canopy, support rods, and hardware kit.
1.3 Mounting the Fixture
Attach the mounting bracket to the electrical junction box in the ceiling. Due to the fixture's weight, ensure the junction box is securely anchored, preferably to a structural support like a wooden brace, as noted in customer feedback. Connect the support rods to the canopy and the fixture body, adjusting the length as desired for optimal hanging height.

1.4 Electrical Connections
Connect the fixture's wires to the household electrical wires according to local electrical codes. Typically, this involves connecting the black wire (live) to the black wire, the white wire (neutral) to the white wire, and the ground wire to the ground wire. Secure all connections with wire nuts.
1.5 Securing the Canopy
Once wiring is complete, carefully push the canopy up to the ceiling, covering the junction box, and secure it with the provided screws or nuts.

3. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Artika Melted ICE Pendant LED Light Fixture.
3.1 Cleaning
Before cleaning, always turn off the power supply to the fixture at the circuit breaker. Use a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth to wipe down the metal frame and glass panels. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or polishes, as these can damage the finish and the integrated LED components.
3.2 LED Light Source
The fixture uses integrated LED lights, which are designed for a long lifespan and are not user-replaceable. If the LED light source fails, the entire fixture may require professional servicing or replacement.
4. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Artika Melted ICE Pendant LED Light Fixture, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Light does not turn on:
- Check the circuit breaker to ensure power is supplied to the fixture.
- Verify that the wall switch is in the "ON" position.
- Ensure all electrical connections are secure and correctly wired.
- Light flickers or dims unexpectedly:
- If using a dimmer, ensure it is compatible with LED fixtures. Incompatible dimmers can cause flickering or poor performance.
- Check for loose wiring connections at the fixture or the wall switch.
- Ensure the voltage supply is stable and within the fixture's specifications (120 Volts).
- Partial illumination (some LEDs not working):
- Since LEDs are integrated, partial failure may indicate an internal component issue. Contact customer support for assistance.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact Artika customer support for further assistance.
