Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure the mounting surface can support the fixture's weight. The unit is designed for permanent suspension; adjust the cord length by pulling or releasing the retracting mechanism until the desired height is achieved. For care, keep the exterior clean by wiping it with a dry, soft cloth once the unit has fully cooled down. Never use abrasive cleaners or water directly on the electrical components, as this can damage the finish and internal wiring. Regularly inspect the cord mechanism to ensure smooth retraction and check electrical connections for wear.
