This document provides assembly and installation instructions for the Golden Lighting 0316-FM flush mount ceiling light. Installation must be performed by an accredited professional. Always shut off the power supply at the circuit breaker before beginning work.
Preparing for installation
- Carefully remove the fixture and parts from the carton.

Connecting the wires
Have an assistant support the fixture's weight during wiring:
- Hot: Connect the fixture's smooth, black, or transparent wire (with black inner thread) to the house's hot wire.
- Neutral: Connect the fixture's ribbed, white, or transparent wire (with white inner thread) to the house's neutral wire.
- Ground: Connect the fixture's copper, bare metal, green, or transparent wire (with green inner thread) to the house's ground wire. If no house ground wire exists, wrap the fixture's ground wire around the ground screw (E) on the mounting strap.
Twist wire ends together in the same direction and secure with a wire connector. Tuck all wires into the junction box.
Finishing the installation
- Lift the canopy (F) over the mounting strap (B) and secure it using the deco nuts (G).
- Lift the metal shade (I) to the socket threads (H) and secure it with the socket cover (J).
