Using your new Scranton lamp is a breeze. First, find a suitable spot in your room for it. Plug it into a power outlet. You can use the 3 - way switch to adjust the brightness according to your needs. If you want to charge your devices, just use the USB port. When it comes to maintenance, dust the lamp regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the faux marble glaze or the antique brass finish. The shade can be gently vacuumed to remove dust. Make sure to use the recommended medium - base bulb with a maximum wattage of 100 to keep the lamp working well. And always unplug the lamp before any cleaning or when you're not using it for a long time.
