Product Information
Full details
The Koto 2lt Bathroom Wall Light is designed for homeowners and interior designers seeking a versatile, space-saving lighting solution for bathrooms, hallways, or kitchens. Its primary benefit is the IP44-rated, twin-glass design that offers reliable moisture protection while providing elegant, ambient illumination. One key caveat to note is that it requires two G9 LED bulbs which must be purchased separately to complete the installation.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this light suitable for use directly inside a shower enclosure?
No. While it is IP44 rated for bathroom zones 2 and 3, it should not be installed inside a shower enclosure (Zone 0 or 1).
Can I use standard halogen G9 bulbs?
The fixture is designed for G9 LED bulbs up to 20W max, but we recommend using LEDs for energy efficiency and reduced heat output.
What is the warranty period?
Please consult the documentation provided by your specific retailer, as warranty terms for First Choice Lighting products are managed by the point of purchase.
Is the installation hardware included?
The product typically comes with the necessary mounting bracket, though you may need specific wall anchors depending on your wall material (e.g., plasterboard vs. brick).
Does the silver finish require special maintenance?
A regular wipe with a soft, dry cloth is sufficient to keep the finish looking new. Do not use chemical cleaners.
Troubleshooting
The light fails to turn on after installation
Verify that the G9 bulbs are properly seated in the sockets and check that the mains circuit breaker has not tripped.
The light flickers when using the dimmer switch
Ensure that the installed bulbs are explicitly labeled as 'dimmable' and that your wall dimmer switch is compatible with LED loads.
One of the two bulbs is not illuminating
Swap the working bulb into the non-working socket to rule out a faulty bulb; if it still fails, the socket connection may require inspection by a qualified electrician.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This fitting is a Class I, earthed electrical product. Professional installation is highly recommended to ensure local electrical codes are met. The fixture requires 2 x 20W Max G9 LED bulbs. When installing, ensure the mounting surface is flat and capable of supporting the light's weight. Compatibility is straightforward: the fixture works with standard household wiring. To maintain the silver finish and glass integrity, wipe periodically with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can strip the finish or scratch the glass shades. If bulbs require replacement, ensure the power is isolated at the mains before attempting to access the G9 sockets.
