If you have enabled the smart feature, you can control the lamp via your smart device for added convenience. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the matte black base and the ivory linen shade. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they may damage the lamp. For the linen shade, be gentle to keep its shape and texture. If you're using the lamp in a commercial setting, make sure to check the connections regularly to ensure safe and efficient operation.
