Troubleshooting
Lamp won't turn on.
Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the lamp and a working USB power source. Try plugging the USB cable into a different USB port or power adapter to rule out a faulty power source. Check if the power outlet is active.
Light is too dim or too bright.
Use the integrated dimmer switch on the lamp. Press and hold the switch to cycle through brightness levels until you reach your desired setting.
Lamp flickers or turns off intermittently.
Check the USB connection at both ends; a loose connection can cause flickering. Ensure the USB power source provides stable power (avoid very low-power USB ports). If the issue persists, try a different USB cable.
Arm or shade feels stiff to adjust.
The lamp's mechanism is designed for smooth movement. Avoid forcing it. Ensure there are no obstructions. If it feels unusually stiff, gently try to move it to break in the joints, but do not apply excessive force.
Lamp wobbles on the desk.
Ensure the lamp is placed on a completely flat and stable surface. Check the base and any connecting parts to ensure they are properly assembled and tightened (though this model is typically pre-assembled).
