Troubleshooting

Pendant does not stay at desired height.

Ensure the counterweight mechanism is functioning correctly and that there are no obstructions. If the issue persists, consult the manufacturer's support or a qualified electrician.

Light flickers or does not turn on.

Check that the E27 bulb is securely screwed in and is compatible. Verify electrical connections and ensure the circuit breaker is on. Try a different E27 bulb to rule out a faulty bulb.

Cable adjustment is stiff.

Gently check for any twists or kinks in the cable or counterweight. Ensure the path for adjustment is clear of any obstructions.
