Instructions for assembly
Please be ver y careful when removing the lamp from the
packaging, so as not to damage the paper shade.
Caution:
Do not connect the lamp to the power supply until
the assembly is complete!
Inserting the bulb
Caution:
Do not touch the bulb or the inner side of the reflector
with your bare hands. The lamp may only be used with the glass
reflector ; otherwise there is a risk of the paper shade overheating
and possibly even catching fire.
Carefully unhook the paper at the top and bottom and allow it
to slide down the retaining rod. Remove the transpor t safeguard
(cardboard strip) below the reflector. Hold the socket with one
hand and inser t the light bulb supplied with the other, reaching
into the wire cage from the top.
Important:
Always ensure that the paper shade is properly
hooked in position. Never allow the paper to touch the socket
or bulb.
Connecting the transformer
Unwind the lamp cable and plug the two connectors into
the sockets on the transformer. Ensure that the connectors are
securely in position.

Important information about the paper
The paper used in this lamp is a natural, untreated product.
Minor surface flaws are a result of the manufacturing process.
The paper shade is hand-made, by a patented process (requiring
up to eight different treatments) based on a traditional Japanese
method of textile dyeing. The results look superficially similar, but
in fact, each shade is unique.
To protect the paper, the following points should be noted:
• Avoid exposure to damp: do not use the lamp in bathrooms,
kitchens or other rooms where condensation may occur.
• Avoid exposure to strong sunlight or draughts.
• Although the Paper is a sensitive material, it can, if necessary, be
pulled out gently.
Do not overstretch the paper, otherwise it will lose its elasticity
and become unable to regain its shape.
• Do not unfold the paper in the ”wrong“ direction (i.e. against
the crease), as this will damage the fibres.
In some cases, the shade takes some time to assume its proper
shape, as the paper has to hang and relax for a while.
Touching the surface may cause shallow dents – these can be
removed by gently pushing them out from the opposite side with
your fingers.
