Using this light is easy. Just find a suitable spot for it on your table. Make sure the area is flat to prevent it from tipping over. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the metal and glass parts to keep it looking clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the finish. Also, always ensure the light is turned off before cleaning. If you need to replace the bulb, follow the standard safety procedures and use a bulb of the appropriate wattage.
