Using your Wilder Table Lamp is a breeze. First, find a stable spot for it, as it's a bit tall. Make sure the plug is polarized and fit it into a proper outlet. To turn the lamp on or off, just use the turn - key switch on the socket. You can adjust the light levels since it's a 3 - way socket. When it comes to bulbs, use a Type A bulb with a maximum wattage of 150. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the glass and metal parts. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the finish. If you need to replace the bulb, always turn off the lamp and let it cool down first. Keep the cord away from sharp objects to prevent any damage. With proper care, your lamp will last you a long time and keep adding a touch of elegance to your space.
