Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the power is switched on at the mains. Check that the bulb is correctly seated and functional. Verify all wiring connections are secure and that the circuit breaker has not tripped.

Glass globe feels loose

Carefully tighten the securing mechanism for the glass globe. Do not overtighten, as this could damage the glass or fixture. If concerned, consult an electrician.

Flickering light

Check the bulb for a loose connection. If using a dimmable bulb, ensure it is compatible with your dimmer switch. The bulb itself may need replacing.

Damage to glass or fixture during installation

Contact customer support or the retailer for replacement parts. Ensure future installations are handled with appropriate care and by qualified personnel.
