Setup Instructions
- Assemble the Tree Stand: Place the tree stand on a flat, stable surface. Open the legs of the stand to form a sturdy base. Secure any locking mechanisms if present.
- Insert the Bottom Tree Section: Carefully insert the largest tree section into the assembled stand. Tighten the screws on the stand to secure the trunk.
- Connect Remaining Tree Sections: Insert the middle section(s) into the section below it, aligning the poles. Ensure all sections are firmly seated. The top section is typically the smallest.
- Connect Electrical Cords: Locate the electrical cords extending from each tree section. Connect them securely. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent power interruptions.
- Shape the Branches (Fluffing): Begin at the bottom of the tree and work your way up. Gently spread out each branch, separating the individual tips to create a full, natural appearance. This process may take 10-25 minutes for optimal results.
- Plug In the Tree: Connect the power adapter to the tree's main power cord and then plug it into a standard electrical outlet.
Operating Instructions
Remote Control Functions
Your tree is equipped with 250 UL listed dual-color LED lights that can be controlled via the included remote. The remote requires 2 AAA batteries (not included).
- ON/OFF: Press the green 'ON' button to turn the lights on, and the red 'OFF' button to turn them off.
- Mode: The remote offers 16 lighting modes. Use the 'MODE' buttons (+/-) to cycle through different light patterns and color combinations.
- Brightness: Adjust the light intensity using the brightness buttons (sun icon +/-). There are 5 brightness levels.
- Timer: Set a timer for the lights to automatically turn on/off. There are 23 timer types. Use the 'TIMER/OFF' button and the timer adjustment buttons (+/-) to select your desired duration.
- Speed: For modes with dynamic effects (e.g., flashing, twinkling), use the 'SPEED' buttons (+/-) to adjust the speed of the effect.
- Memory Function: The remote control includes a memory function, which will recall the last selected lighting mode when the tree is turned on again.
Light Color Options
The tree features dual-color LED lights, allowing for various color schemes:
- Classic Warm White: A traditional, steady warm white glow.
- Traditional Multi-Color: Features red, yellow, green, blue, and purple lights.
- Pastel Multi-Color: Includes petal, blond, orange, mint, and lavender hues.
- Combination Modes: Various combinations of warm white and multi-color lights, including steady, twinkle, and slow glow effects.
Maintenance
- Bulb Replacement: The tree is designed to remain lit even if one bulb burns out, breaks, or loosens. However, if a section of lights goes out, check for loose bulbs or connections.
- Cleaning: To clean the tree, gently wipe the branches with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Before each use, inspect the tree, lights, and electrical cords for any damage. Do not use the tree if any part is damaged.
Storage
When the holiday season concludes, follow these steps for proper storage:
- Unplug the Tree: Disconnect the power adapter from the electrical outlet and from the tree's main power cord.
- Disassemble Sections: Carefully disconnect the electrical cords between sections. Then, lift each tree section out of the one below it, starting from the top.
- Compress Branches: Gently compress the branches of each section towards the center pole.
- Store in Bag: Place the disassembled tree sections and the stand into the provided storage bag. This protects the tree from dust and damage, ensuring it is ready for the next holiday season.
- Store in a Cool, Dry Place: Keep the stored tree in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Lights do not turn on. | Ensure the power adapter is securely plugged into both the wall outlet and the tree's main cord. Check all section-to-section electrical connections. Verify remote control batteries are correctly inserted and functional. |
| Some lights are out. | The tree is designed to stay lit if one bulb fails. Check for any loose or broken bulbs and replace if necessary. Ensure all light string connections are secure. |
| Remote control is not working. | Check if the remote control batteries (2 AAA) are installed correctly and are not depleted. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the tree's receiver. |
| Tree appears sparse after assembly. | Thoroughly 'fluff' the branches by spreading out each individual tip. This process is crucial for achieving a full appearance. Refer to the 'Shape the Branches' step in the Setup Instructions. |
