CAUTION: When replacing lamps. Please note the first bulb (located
closest to the bladed plug) and the last bulb (located closest to the end
connector) are REPLACEABLE safety fuse lamps. These lamps can be identified by
their white (or green) lamp holder ring. Always replace burned-out bulbs
promptly. If a number
of bulbs are burned out, extra stress is put on the remaining bulbs in the
circuit. This may cause additional bulbs to burn out prematurely.
-
Step 1: Grasp plug and remove from the receptacle or other outlet device. Do not unplug by pulling cord.
-
Step 2: Hold bulb by the plastic base and pull bulb/base straight out of socket.
-
Step 3 : Replace bulb with only 2.5 Volt, 0.425 Watt super bright midget push-in type lamp provided with product. Push spare bulb/base assembly into socket. Do not twist bulb when inserting into socket. If bulbs are twisted, part of the set will not light.
If the spare bulbs provided with the product have no plastic base or the plastic base does not fit, first follow steps 1 – 2 above. Then
- Remove the old bulb by straightening the bulb wires and pulling bulb straight from the base.
- Replace the new bulb by straightening the bulb leads and aiming each wire into a separate hole in the plastic base.
- Make sure each bulb lead comes out an exit opening at the bottom of the plastic base. Now bend each lead up such that each bulb lead fits closely against the narrow side of the plastic base.
CAUTION:
This lighting string is rated 61.2Watts (0.51 Amps), do not overload. Connect
other lighting strings or decorative outfits end-to-end up to a maximum of
216Watts (1.8 Amps) total. If connecting to a lighting string that does not
have a Wattage (W) rating {found on the tag within 6 inches of the plug}
calculate the wattage as follows:
Multiply the current (0.51A) which is on the flag-type tag by 120.
For Example: Lighting string is rated 120V, 60 Hz, 0.51 Amps. 0.51 X 120 =
61.2Watts
Add the wattage of each light string together for a total of 216Watts or less.
(Do not exceed 216Watts.)
