  1. Preparation: Carefully remove the fixture from the carton and verify all parts are present.
  2. Mounting Plate: Attach the mounting plate (C) to the outlet box (not supplied) using mounting screws (D). Ensure the ground wire faces outward.
  3. Fixture Assembly: Install the decorative arm (G) onto the fixture back plate (F) and secure it to the bottom nipple (K) using the provided hex screw (H) and Allen wrench (I).

Grounding Instructions

  • Insert the green grounding screw into the hole with two raised dimples on the mounting bar.
  • Wrap the fixture ground wire around the green grounding screw.
  • Connect the fixture ground wire to the house ground wire from the outlet box using a wire connector.
  • Warning: Never connect the ground wire to black or white power supply wires.

Wiring Instructions

Identify your fixture wires and connect them to the house wires as follows:

  • Group A (Connect to Black House Wire): Black, Parallel wire (round & smooth), White or Grey with tracer, or Brown/Gold/Black without tracer.
  • Group B (Connect to White House Wire): White, Parallel wire (square & ridged), White or Grey without tracer, or Brown/Gold/Black with tracer.

Connection Procedure:

  1. Place the fixture wire evenly against the house wire. Do not twist wires together before using connectors.
  2. Fit a wire connector over the wires and screw clockwise until firm.
  3. Gently pull the connector to ensure a firm connection. If it comes off, repeat the process.

Final Assembly and Sealing

  1. Align the fixture back plate (F) to the mounting plate (C) and secure it with washer (E) and screws (B).
  2. Moisture Protection: To prevent moisture from entering the outlet box and causing a short, apply clear silicone sealant around the outside of the fixture back plate where it meets the wall. Leave a small space at the bottom to allow moisture to escape.

Cleaning and Maintenance

To clean the fixture, wipe it with a soft cloth. Clean the glass with mild soap. Do not use abrasive materials such as scouring pads, powders, steel wool, or abrasive paper.

Technical Specifications

  • Bulb: 1 x AC LED 6W (included).

Common problems

Fixture is loose after installation

Check that the mounting plate is securely attached to the outlet box and that the back plate is properly aligned and screwed in.

Moisture entering the outlet box

Apply clear silicone sealant around the outside of the fixture back plate where it meets the wall, leaving a gap at the bottom for drainage.

Wire connector feels loose

Remove the connector, ensure wires are placed evenly against each other, and screw the connector clockwise again until firm.
