Troubleshooting

Lamp does not turn on

Ensure the lamp is properly plugged into a working outlet. Check that the light bulb is screwed in securely and is not burnt out. Test with a known working bulb.

Light flickers

This could indicate a loose bulb connection or an issue with the bulb itself. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it with a new one. Ensure the power source is stable.

Shade is difficult to adjust

Ensure no obstructions are preventing movement. The joint may require very gentle handling; avoid forcing it. If persistent, contact customer support.
