Troubleshooting

Shade does not fit securely.

Ensure the shade is correctly seated on the lampholder and that any securing rings or clips are properly fastened. Check for any obstructions.

Light flickers when using a smart bulb.

Confirm the smart bulb is fully compatible with the shade and the lampholder. Ensure the bulb is screwed in correctly. Try a different compatible bulb.

Shade appears crooked.

Check that the shade is evenly balanced on the lampholder. The reversible design may require adjustment for optimal alignment.

Bulb is too long and touches the shade.

Remove the bulb and measure its length against the shade's internal height (18 cm). Use a shorter bulb that is compatible with the required cap type (B22 BC or E27 ES) and wattage (10W Max).
