Using your new table lamp is easy. First, fully assemble the lamp as it requires full assembly. Once assembled, plug the clear cord into a smart outlet if you want to use the smart - function. If you don't have a smart outlet, any regular outlet will work too. Remember to buy a suitable bulb as it's not included. To turn the lamp on or off, simply use the on/off rotary switch on the socket. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the matte white base and the white Japanese paper shade. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the finish. Since it can be used commercially, place it in your office, waiting area, or other commercial spaces.
