Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on.
Check that the power supply is on at the breaker. Ensure the bulbs are correctly installed and not burnt out. Verify all wiring connections are secure (consult an electrician if unsure).
Pendant flickers.
This could be due to a loose bulb, a faulty bulb, or an incompatible dimmer switch. Try replacing the bulbs or checking the dimmer compatibility.

Ensure the smart bulb is correctly paired with your smart home system. Check that the pendant is receiving power and that the bulb is compatible.
