• In order to prevent any damages to the lamp, do not hang or place any objects over the lamp.
• Route the power cord so as to avoid it from being walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against it.
• Place the lamp only on a solid, flat and stable surface. Otherwise the lamp may topple over and result in damages.
• If the lamp will not be used for a long period of time, unplug it from the power outlet.

CAUTION
In case of the following situations, unplug the lamp from the power outlet immediately and contact the authorized service center or a qualified service person for inspection or repair:

• When the outer casing of the lamp is broken
• When there are strange odors coming from the lamp
• When the lamp flickers
• When the insulation of the lamp’s wiring is damaged or frayed, and the metal strings inside can be seen

Do not use the lamp in a humid environment (like in a bathroom or outdoors). Otherwise the components inside may short-circuit and result in accidents. This lamp is designed for indoor use only. Do not use it outdoors. Never disassemble the lamp or remove any components from it, as doing so may result in accidents and will void the product warranty

Installation

1. Place the pedestal base on a solid, flat and stable surface.
2. Insert the metal shaft on the lamp body into the hole on the top of the lamp arm [Figure ]. When inserting, note the direction of the shaft and ensure that the lamp body is horizontally seated on the lamp arm. The convex side of the lamp arm should face toward the direction where the lamp head extends [Figure (1)].
3. Secure the lamp body to the lamp arm by tightening the two screws using the hex L-key provided [Figure (1)]. Press the rubber pad into the groove to cover the screw holes [Figure (2)].
4. Press the cable into the groove on the lamp arm [Figure (1)]. At least 8 cm of excess length should be left in order for the lamp body to move freely [Figure (2)].
5. Connect the power cord to the power adapter [Figure (3)] and plug it into a power outlet [Figure (4)].
