Then, plug in the 72-inch cord to a power source. Use the rotary socket switch to turn the lamp on and off. When placing the lamp, ensure it's on a stable surface. To maintain the lamp, gently dust the ceramic base with a soft cloth. For the linen shade, you can use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment to remove dust.
