Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the lamp is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check that the light bulb is correctly installed and not burnt out. Verify the power switch on the lamp (if applicable) is in the 'on' position.

Light flickers intermittently

This could indicate a loose bulb or a potential issue with the bulb's connection. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it with a new one. If the problem persists, consult an electrician.

Arms are too stiff or too loose

The ball connectors may require adjustment. Consult the specific product manual for instructions on how to tighten or loosen these joints, often involving a small tool or screw.

Finish appears dull or damaged

Ensure you are using only a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid abrasive materials or chemical cleaners. For minor scuffs on metal finishes, a specialized metal polish might be suitable, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
