FAQs
Can I use these lights outdoors?

What should I do if a bulb stops working?
LED strings are often wired in series; if one bulb fails, it may affect the entire segment. Ensure the connection is secure, but do not attempt to disassemble the bulbs.
Are these lights safe to leave on overnight?
It is recommended to turn off all decorative string lights when you go to bed or leave your home for safety reasons.
Troubleshooting
Lights will not turn on
Verify the power source is active, check if batteries are inserted with the correct polarity, or ensure the plug is firmly seated in the outlet.
Individual bulbs are flickering
Check the connections between the individual character housings and the wire to ensure they are secure; if damage is visible to the wiring, discontinue use.
The string looks tangled
Lay the string flat on a non-abrasive surface and gently work through loops starting from the end of the string to avoid pulling or snapping the wires.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your lights, carefully untangle the wire before plugging them in or inserting fresh batteries. Avoid stretching the wire tightly, as this can damage the internal connections. For care, keep the lights away from excessive heat sources like candles or radiators. When the season ends, store the lights in a cool, dry place inside their original packaging or a tangle-free storage container to protect the delicate character housings from cracking. Ensure the lights are completely turned off and disconnected from the power source before cleaning with a soft, dry cloth; never use water or chemical cleaners on the electrical components.
