Installation and Usage

When placing the product on a tree, ensure the tree is well-maintained, fresh, and stable. Keep the tree holder filled with water. Use the included clear nylon string to hang the ornament ball. The weight of the ornament ball should be supported only by the clear nylon string, not by the plug or plug cord. Tie the ornament ball to tree branches, porch overhangs, gutters, or eaves to create a decorative effect.

Bulb Replacement

Before changing bulbs, ensure the set is unplugged. Do not twist the bulbs.

1. Grasp the plug and remove it from the receptacle.
2. Hold the bulb by the plastic base and pull the bulb/base straight out of the socket.
3. Replace the lamp with a 2.5 Volt, 0.425 Watt regular brightness midget push-in type lamp provided with the product.
4. Push the spare bulb/base assembly into the socket.

If the spare bulbs provided have no plastic base or the base does not fit, remove the old bulb by straightening the bulb wires and pulling it from the base. Insert the new bulb by straightening the leads, aiming each wire into a separate hole in the plastic base, and ensuring the leads come out the exit opening at the bottom. Bend each lead up against the narrow side of the plastic base.

Fuse Replacement

If the fuse blows, it usually indicates an overload or short-circuit. Unplug the product and any additional strings attached to it.

1. Ensure the set is unplugged.
2. Grasp the plug and remove it from the receptacle. Do not unplug by pulling on the cord.
3. Using a flathead screwdriver, open the fuse access cover on top of the attachment plug by sliding it towards the blades.
4. Remove the fuses carefully.
5. Replace the fuse only with a 3 Amp, 125 Volt fuse (provided with the product).
6. Slide the fuse access cover closed. Ensure the door is fully closed and fuses are completely covered.
