Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on
Verify that the power is switched on at the mains. Check the bulb connection and ensure it is screwed in correctly. If the issue persists, consult a qualified electrician.
Flickering light
This could be due to a loose bulb or a compatible dimmer switch. Ensure the bulb is securely fitted. If using a dimmer, check its compatibility with LED bulbs or consider replacing the dimmer if it is faulty.
