Installation

Note: Before you start to assemble your tree, please choose a location near an electrical wall outlet. Place the tree stand on a level surface. Please remove protective covers from the base of the pole from each section.

1. Unfold the tree base to a 90 degree angle.
2. Carefully insert the bottom section (C) of the tree into the tree base and tighten the screw (see Fig. 1).
3. Insert the middle section (B) of the tree into the bottom section (C) (see Fig. 2).
4. Insert the top section (A) into the middle section (B) (see Fig. 3). Note: There is a tree top connector on the top section (A).
5. Allow the branches to fall into place or gently pull branches up and out. When adjusting branches, be sure that all wires are free of branch hinges (see Fig. 4).
6. Shape the branches. Starting with tips closest to the pole, shape one tip to the right, one to the left, and one along the centre of the main stem. Repeat this pattern for each branch (see Fig. 5).
7. Plug the well-connected power supply cord plug 1 from the bottom section (C) into an electrical outlet. The plug 2 is for tree top lights; plug it into an electrical outlet.
8. Alternatively, to light up the tree, plug plug 1 and plug 2 into the power cord with on/off foot pedal switch (F). Then, plug the plug 3 into the electrical outlet.
9. This tree comes with a control box for easy illumination and changing functions. The 4 lighting options available are: 1) Warm White Color Steady On, 2) Multicolor Steady On, 3) Color Changing, and 4) Off.

Troubleshooting

If any lights do not work on your pre-lit tree, please check the following before calling customer service:

If entire tree or a section of the tree does not light:

• Make sure the end connector of the power cord is well connected to the bottom section (C).
• Check that each section of the tree is well connected.
• Check that there is power at the electrical outlet.
• Check fuses in the tree's plugs and replace if necessary (see Replace the fuse below).

If a strand of lights still does not work:

• Check that all lamps are tightly fitted inside the lampholders and that no lamps are broken or missing. Replace any broken or missing lamps with replacement lamps provided (see Replace the lamp below). If all lamps are firmly in the lampholders, slightly twist the lamps from side to side to ensure proper connection.
• If the lights still do not work, carefully remove each lamp one by one out of the problem light string. Pull the lamp AND plastic base straight out of the lampholder. Do not twist lamps while removing from lampholders. Check the two wires at the bottom of the lampholder. Each wire should be aligned properly on the lampholder to ensure a proper connection. If one wire is missing or too short, please replace the lamp with a replacement lamp (provided).

If you are still experiencing problems with the tree, please contact customer service at 866-205-9854.

Loose branches

If a branch of the tree falls off, follow the steps below to reinstall it with a spare bolt.

1. Place the branch into the slot of the bracket.
2. Insert a spare bolt through the hole and use diagonal pliers (not included) to crimp the bolt (See Fig. A).

Fig. A: Shows a branch bracket with a hole, a bolt being inserted, and diagonal pliers used to crimp the bolt, securing a loose branch.

CAUTION! ALWAYS UNPLUG YOUR TREE FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE ATTEMPTING EITHER FUSE OR LAMP REPLACEMENT.

User Servicing Instructions

6. Risk of fire. Do not replace attachment plug. It contains a safety device (fuse) that should not be removed. Discard product if the attachment plug is damaged.

Fuse for power cord from the bottom section (C) and plug 2:

1. Grasp plug and remove from the receptacle or other outlet device. Do not unplug by pulling on cord.
2. Open fuse cover. Slide open fuse access cover on top of attachment plug towards blades.
3. Remove fuse carefully.
4. Risk of fire. Replace fuse only with a 3 Amp, 125 Volt fuse (provided with product).
5. Close fuse cover. Slide closed the fuse access cover on top of attachment plug.
6. Risk of fire. Do not replace attachment plug. It contains a safety device (fuse) that should not be removed. Discard product if the attachment plug is damaged.

Replace the lamp:

1. Grasp plug and remove from the receptacle or other outlet device. Do not unplug by pulling on cord.
2. Unlock the burned out LED lamp by lifting the hook.
3. Pull lamp and plastic base straight out of the lampholder.
4. Replace lamp with only a 3.0 Volt, 0.06 Watt, LED type lamp (provided with product). Always match the hook to the tab.
5. Lock the hook of the lamp base by pushing the lock down into the tab.

Diagrams show the fuse access cover on plugs and the process of unlocking, removing, and locking a lamp into its base using a hook and tab mechanism.

CAUTION:

• To reduce the risk of overheating, replace burned-out lamps promptly. Use 3.0 Volt, 0.06 Watt LED lamps only. The LED lamp has polarity. Do not deliberately change the direction of the LED lamp in the lamp holder.
• Risk of fire. This product does not contain lamp shunts, which allow the product to operate if one lamp burns out. Replace lamps only with the spare lamps provided with this product.

If the new lamp base does not fit in lampholder:

1. Pull the reflector out.
2. Remove the base of the burned-out lamp by straightening lamp leads and gently pulling the lamp out.
3. Thread leads of the new lamp through holes in the old base, with one lead in each hole.
4. After the lamp is fully inserted into the base, bend each lead up, like other lamps in the light set, so that the leads will touch the contacts inside the lampholder (always match the long lead of the new lamp to the hook of the lamp base).
5. Insert the reflector into the base.

CAUTION:

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only with the power-supply cord provided or with a cord set intended for indoor use.
• Do not use a cracked, frayed, or damaged cord. Inspect the cord periodically.
