Using your Zema Table Lamp is a breeze. Just plug the 60 - inch cord into a power outlet and turn on the on/off switch. You'll immediately enjoy the 805 lumens of light it provides. When it's time to change the bulb, make sure the lamp is turned off and cool to the touch. Unscrew the old E26 screw - terminal bulb and replace it with a new one. To keep your lamp looking its best, gently dust the ceramic body and cotton shade regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they may damage the lamp's finish. Since the lamp is made in China and doesn't require assembly, you can simply place it on a table or nightstand and start using it right away.
