Maintenance Manual
Lighting is not only about brightness — it is about atmosphere, comfort, and style. To help you enjoy your lamps for years to come, we’ve prepared some simple care and maintenance tips.
1. General Care
-
Dusting: Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently wipe lampshades, stands, and bases. Avoid abrasive cloths or harsh chemicals.
-
Cleaning Glass Parts: A slightly damp cloth can be used for glass lampshades. Dry immediately with a soft towel to prevent streaks.
-
Avoid Moisture: Keep all electrical parts away from water and high humidity to ensure safety and longevity.
2. Light Bulbs
-
Installation: Always switch off the power before installing or replacing a bulb.
-
Cleaning: Use a dry cloth to wipe bulbs — never spray cleaners directly onto them.
-
Efficiency Tip: Consider energy-efficient bulbs (LED) to reduce energy use and extend lifespan.
3. Floor & Table Lamps
-
Placement: Ensure lamps are placed on stable surfaces to prevent tipping.
-
Cable Care: Keep cords untangled and away from foot traffic to avoid damage.
-
Shades: Fabric or paper shades should be dusted regularly; avoid strong cleaners that may discolor or weaken materials.
4. Wall Lamps
-
Mounting: Always ensure the lamp is properly secured to the wall with the right fittings.
-
Regular Checks: Inspect periodically to confirm screws and fittings remain tight and secure.
5. Safety Guidelines
-
Never exceed the recommended bulb wattage specified for your lamp.
-
Do not cover lamps with cloths or other materials while in use — this may cause overheating.
-
Unplug lamps if you are away for an extended period.
6. Long-Term Care
-
Seasonal Cleaning: Give your lamps a more thorough clean every few months to maintain their beauty.
-
Storage: If storing a lamp, wrap it carefully in its original packaging or soft material to protect delicate surfaces.
