TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Confirm power is turned on.
2. Before performing any troubleshooting, make sure to unplug string
light completely from power supply.
3. If one or several bulbs do not light, gently grasp and tighten bulbs
further into socket. Do not overtighten. Plug into power supply and retry.
4. If none of the bulbs light up, check the fuse at end of cord. This
product employs overload protection (fuse). A blown fuse indicates an overload
or short-circuit situation. If the fuse is blown, unplug the product from the
outlet. Also unplug any additional strings or products attached to the
product. If the replacement fuse blows again, it is possible that a short
circuit has occurred and the product needs to be discarded.
To replace the fuse: Grasp plug and remove from the receptacle or other outlet device. Do not unplug by pulling on cord. Open access cover on top of the attachment plug. Slide the fuse cover towards the electrical prongs. Carefully pop out the fuse using a small flat head screwdriver to remove the fuse (See Image 1). Insert the new fuse (extra provided with product) and ensure it is properly seated in the plug. To reduce the risk of fire, replace fuse with only a 5A 125V fuse (extra provided with product). To close after inserting a new fuse, slide fuse cover back to original position. Close fuse access cover on top of the attachment plug.
