Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the bulb is correctly installed and not burnt out. Check that the power cable is securely plugged in or that the hardwired connection is stable. Verify the power source is active.

Light flickers intermittently

Try replacing the E14 bulb, as flickering can indicate a failing bulb. If hardwired, consult an electrician to check the wiring connections.

Shade adjustment is stiff

Gently try to move the shade. If resistance is felt, do not force it. Dust or debris may be affecting the joint. Clean around the joint with a dry cloth. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
