Using this table lamp is easy. First, make sure to place it on a stable surface. Insert two 40 - watt bulbs into the sockets. You can control the lighting by simply pulling the chain switches. For daily use, it's best to keep the lamp away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent damage to the metal body and mica shade. To clean the lamp, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the metal body and shade. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they may scratch or damage the lamp. If you notice any issues with the bulbs or switches, replace them promptly to ensure continuous use.
