These instructions are provided for your safety in order to prevent the risk of Fire, Electric shock or Injury. It is vitally
important that they are read in their entirety before installing your fitting. Please retain for future reference.
1. If you are in any doubt concerning the installation of this fitting, consult a qualified electrician.
2. Ensure that the electrical supply is switched OFF. Disconnect the electrical supply at the fuse-board.
3. Before starting the installation, identify any concealed wiring or pipes in the mounting area to avoid damage.
4. Position the light where desired, ensuring that there is suitable support adjacent to where you will connect to the house
supply, and mark the positions of the fixing holes. Drill appropriate holes, as below:
5. a. Brick or masonry: Drill holes into which the wall plugs tightly fit, then insert wall plugs.
b. Wood: No hole necessary (unless small pilot hole required), screws can be screwed directly into the timber.
c. Plaster/Cavity: Special cavity wall fittings are required, rather than provided fixings. These are widely available from
good hardware or DIY store and should come with their own instructions that must be followed. It may be easier to
relocate the fitting so that you screw directly into a timber joist or beam.
6. Follow the instructions inside to complete the installation
7. Fit the correct type and wattage of lamp (or less). Be careful not to overtighten the lamp.
8. Switch on at the fuse-board. Your light fitting is now ready for use.
Other Important Information
- Ensure the lamp (bulb) type and max wattage is followed - do not exceed. Take care not to overtighten the lamp.
- Do not touch the lamp or lampholder while in operation, as both become very hot.
- Turn off and unplug fitting, leaving lamp to cool before changing lamp. Dispose of old lamps carefully.
- Adjust light fitting only when power to the fitting is off and has been left to cool.
- Never leave a fitting without a lamp in position.
- Keep light fitting away from combustible materials such as soft furnishings.
- Ensure children do not play with the light fitting. Trailing cables can pose a strangulation hazard to young children. if the
light is to be installed in an area young children can access unsupervised we recommend attaching the cable to the wall
using a suitable cable clip, available at good hardware stores.
- If the electrical flex or electrical components become damaged at any point, the fitting must be unplugged from the power
supply immediately and not operated until the damaged parts are fixed/replaced.
- For use in a dry, indoor environment only. Ensure the fitting does not come into contact with any liquids.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Metal finishes should only be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use polishes or abrasives. Bone china can be cleaned by

cleaning. Spare parts are available for this product, please contact us using the details below.
