WARNINGS:

  • WARNING # 1: Never connect Ground Wire (GREEN or BARE) to WHITE/Neutral or BLACK/Hot Wire.

  • WARNING # 2: Never connect the BLACK/Hot Wire to the WHITE/Neutral Wire.

  • WARNING # 3: Orange Wire Connectors (I) provided are designed to connect TWO to FOUR 18-gage wires and may be appropriate for your wiring situation. All wiring should be snugly and securely fastened with correctly sized wire connectors. If your wiring differs from this most simple example, you should con-sult a qualified electrician to be sure that the wiring is done safely and correctly with appropriately sized connectors for your unique wiring situation.

  • WARNING #4: Do NOT over-tighten the Shade Ring (V) as the Glass Shade (W) may crack or break.

  • WARNING # 5: The hardware has a 60-watt INCANDESCENT MAX rating. Do NOT exceed this rating.
    For California residents, it is recommended to not go beyond a 10-watt LED MAX rating.

  • NOTICE # 1: Brushed Nickel fixtures come with clear cord. The clear cord comes with distinct heat-shrink-colored labels instead of fully colored wires. Other finishes come with either black or brown cord and the individual wires are BLACK/Hot, WHITE/Neutral and GREEN/Ground.
    (SEE: ‘WIRE DESIGNATION’ CHART AT THE BEGINNING OF INSTRUCTIONS).

  • NOTICE #2: Make sure the power is OFF before attempting to adjust the Glass Shade (W). The flange of the Shade Ring (V) (wide and flat side of the ring) screws around the E26 Socket Set (U) against the Glass Shade (W) to affix it to the lighting fixture. The hole at the top of the shade is slightly larger than the E26 Socket Set (U). If the shade hangs slightly crooked then hold Glass Shade (W) while unscrewing the Shade Ring (V) a few turns. Once the Glass Shade (W) is loose, recenter the Glass Shade (W) to hang straight and then re-tighten the Shade Ring (V) to set Glass Shade (W) in place.
