Using this lamp is easy. First, find a suitable spot in your room. It can be placed on a side table, nightstand, or any flat surface. If partial assembly is needed, follow the included instructions to attach the white fabric drum shade to the lamp 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. The integrated LED bulb with a maximum wattage of 60 will provide a warm and cozy light. Remember, this lamp is not for commercial use. When cleaning, gently dust the brass glass base and the white fabric shade with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the lamp. Also, make sure to turn off the lamp and unplug it before any maintenance or cleaning.
