Thoughtful lighting, responsibly designed in London. Thank you for making the switch to Tala. Discover the full Tala family at tala.co.uk

PREPARATION

Please read the instructions thoroughly before installation and keep them for future reference. Improper assembly can undermine the safety and longevity of the product.
IMPORTANT
All packaging must be removed and bulb carefully screwed in before turning on. The product is designed to work with the Tala 12V LED bulb provided. Do not use the alternative bulb as product will not work effectively. For replacements, visit the Tala website or contact us for assistance. Avoid turning on product in hot temperatures above 35ºC. Doing so will reduce lumen output and bulb lifespan. To reduce risk of scratches or marking, ensure bulb is fully housed in the glass case unless changing the bulb.
WARNING
The Muse is not suitable for recessed or enclosed fixtures or environments and should be displayed as instructed. Do not leave the product under direct sunlight while switched on. Ensure all fixings are tightly sealed and do not allow internal components and surfaces to be exposed to water.

INITIAL SET UP

STEP 1
Release the two screws on the lid with the provided screwdriver and remove the handle.
STEP 2
Lift off the lid and carefully remove all packing material from inside including the bulb box.
STEP 3
Remove bulb from box and carefully screw into the lamp holder coil by turning the bulb clockwise. Be careful to align the bulb properly and do not over- tighten. The glass can be removed again after initial installation for better access to bulb and lamp holder coil.
STEP 4
Ensure the bulb is screwed in fully and contact is made between the base of the bulb and the housing, without overtightening. The bulb and housing are both safe to touch.
IMPORTANT
Over-tightening or under-tightening of the bulb will cause misalignment. If this occurs, make small adjustments until straight and just touching the contact point.
STEP 5
Return the lid and handle to the original position and tighten screws to secure the handle in place.
STEP 6
To turn on, rotate the dial on the front of the lamp clockwise until the bulb lights up. Adjust the dimmer for your desired light output. Dial the dimmer up for a cool white light, and dial down for a warm, ambient colour temperature.

CHARGING THE MUSE

OPTION 1: WIRED CHARGING
Insert the provided USB Type-C charging cable into the input at the back of the luminaire base and plug into a USB Type-A adapter. For optimum charging, use the 0.5m charging cable provided and a 2-Amp USB Type-A adapter.

OPTION 2: WIRELESS CHARGING
Place assembled product flat on a compatible wireless charging pad and ensure it is placed on the centre of the pad for effective charging.

When charging correctly, the battery charge level indicator lights will start blinking. Total charging time is 8 hours wired or 10 hours wireless.

BATTERY LEVEL INDICATOR

Press the button on the back of the lamp to display the battery level indicators on the front of the lamp. Press the button twice to turn the indicator lights off.

IMPORTANT
The Muse uses a Lithium-ion battery pack rated for 1000 full charge/discharge cycles. After this, the battery capacity may begin to noticeably degrade.

Tips to prolong the battery life are:

Once fully charged, please remove from charger
Avoid allowing the battery to reach 0%. Recharge when the low-battery indicator begins to blink
When not in use, store The Muse with 25-50% battery (indicators 1-2)
During charge, make sure The Muse is uncovered to avoid over-heating
Depending on the charger power output, The Muse may not always charge to 100% if the bulb is on at the same time

The battery, bulb, and glass can all be easily replaced. For replacement parts, please visit our website or contact us at customerservice@tala.co.uk

CARE AND CLEANING

We recommend cleaning with a soft dry cloth. If required, further cleaning can be achieved with warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasive materials as these will damage the finish of the product. Do not use alcohol or other solvents. Extended use in wet or humid locations can cause condensation to form inside the glass tube. Please follow ‘Initial Set-Up’ steps to open the lid and allow condensation to evaporate. To avoid condensation, it is recommended that the lamp is not exposed to wet weather for long periods, such as left out in the rain overnight
