Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the power supply is on, the bulb is correctly installed and functional, and all wiring connections are secure. Ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped.

Pendant hangs unevenly

Verify that the ceiling hook is centered and securely attached. Ensure the chain links are properly engaged and not twisted.

Flickering light

This may indicate a loose bulb connection or an issue with the light bulb itself. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it with a new one. If the problem persists, consult an electrician.
