Using your new table lamp is easy. First, if it requires partial assembly, follow the instructions provided to put the lamp together. Attach the white fabric drum shade to the base using the threaded uno shade fitter. Then, plug the 72-inch cord into a power outlet. Use the rotary socket switch to turn the lamp on and off. To maintain the lamp, dust the brass base and fabric shade regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they could damage the finish. Since this lamp is not for commercial use, keep it in a residential setting. Also, be aware of the Prop65 compliance.
