SHAPING
1.
Plug in the lights as you are shaping the tree.
2.
The branches were condensed to fit into the box and can be reshaped to their original fullness by bending and
separating each of the branches in a more realistic manner.
3.
Please reference the image on the cover of this instruction manual to see what the tree should look like.
4.
Shape by section and layer, starting at the bottom of the tree and working your way up to ensure coverage of the
whole tree.
5.
On each branch, begin with the tips closest to the pole and work your way to the end of the branch.
6.
The tips should be shaped up and to the sides, resembling a peacock’s fanned tail. Offset the tip from the tip before
to hide the tree’s pole and fill spaces. Continue spreading the tips until they resemble that of a real tree.
7.
After shaping the whole tree, step back and take an overall look. Shift branches to fill any gaps. Your tree is now
ready to decorate and enjoy!

STORAGE
P
ROPER TREE HANDLING AND STORAGE WILL HELP YOU GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR TREE FOR MANY YEARS TO COME
.
1.
Remove any ornaments and decorations that were added by you and did not come with the tree.
2.
Unplug the tree from the power source in your home and disconnect the plug connection between each tree
section.
3.
Starting with the top, separate each tree section and stand gently, being sure not to roughly handle as it could
cause damage to the parts.
4.
Compress each tree section by turning it upside down and squeezing the branches together so that it will fit more
easily into the storage box or container. You can also tie a ribbon or cord around the sections to secure the
branches closer together for storage.
5.
Place all the parts gently back into the storage box. The box will help prevent the tree from being damaged should
it get bumped in your garage, basement, or other storage location. Tape the box shut to keep out any dust or
insects. When packing up the tree, please ensure that there is no stress or strain to the tree.
6.
Be sure to store the tree in a cool, dry area free of water and moisture to prevent mold and mildew from
accumulating and a musty odor from developing. Exposing your tree to excessive heat or humidity may damage
your tree. DO NOT STORE THE TREE IN A DAMP AREA OR IN AN AREA WHERE THE TEMPERATURE EXCEEDS 100ºF.
STORE THE CARTON FLAT AND
NOT
UPRIGHT ON ITS SHORT END.
