Using your Discreet Lamp is super easy. Just find a nice spot in your room, plug it into a power outlet, and turn it on to enjoy the warm glow. When cleaning, make sure to turn off the lamp and unplug it first. You can use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the gold stem and the clear acrylic base. For the paper shade, be extra careful as it's delicate. Avoid getting it wet. If there's a little dust, you can use a soft brush to gently remove it. Store the lamp in a dry place when not in use to keep it in good condition.
