Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on after installation
  1. Ensure the main power supply is on. 2. Check all wiring connections at the ceiling rose and within the pendant to ensure they are secure and correctly matched (Live, Neutral, Earth). 3. Verify the bulb is screwed in correctly and is not faulty by testing it in another known working fixture if possible. 4. If using a smart bulb, confirm it's paired correctly with its hub/app.
Dimmable feature is not working
  1. Confirm that you are using a specifically 'dimmable' E27 ES bulb. Standard LED bulbs may not be dimmable. 2. Ensure your wall switch is a compatible dimmer switch, not a standard on/off switch. 3. Check connections at the dimmer switch and the pendant light.
Smart bulb is not connecting or behaving erratically
  1. Ensure the pendant is powered on. 2. Follow the specific pairing instructions for your smart bulb. This usually involves toggling the power on/off a certain number of times. 3. Check your Wi-Fi network and smart home hub (if applicable) for connectivity issues. 4. Verify the smart bulb's length fits correctly within the pendant without obstruction.
