Using your new table lamp is a breeze. First, find a stable surface in your home where you'd like to place it. Then, insert a 150 - watt bulb into the socket. Once the bulb is in place, plug the lamp into a power outlet. You can use the 2 - way switch to turn the lamp on and off or adjust the lighting as you need. As for maintenance, keep the lamp away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to prevent the finish from fading or the fabric shade from getting damaged. To clean the metal parts, use a soft, dry cloth. For the fabric shade, a gentle vacuum can help remove dust. And that's all you need to know to enjoy your beautiful table lamp for years to come.
