Please note that all our lights require earthing.
This light must be installed in accordance with the latest edition of British Standard 7671. The electricity supply should always be isolated at its source (fuse box) before attempting any installation or maintenance. Please do not fit bulbs exceeding the maximum allowable wattage as shown on the label adjacent to the bulb holder.
Please note we do not recommend using halogen bulbs in our lights.
If the external flexible cable or cord is damaged, it should be replaced exclusively by Jim Lawrence or a similar qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. If the glass components of this light are damaged during transit, please contact Jim Lawrence to discuss replacements.

NB. If the wiring in your house predates the British standards regulation in 2004 to harmonise wiring colours. The colour of your wires may be different to the illustration.
Check that you have a good fixing point for the ceiling rose - a ceiling joist or batten is ideal. In many older houses this point can take some time to prepare. The area directly around the ceiling rose must be flat to ensure a water tight installation.
Before fitting the fixing plate, thread the existing wires through the back plate via the grommet.
Screw the fixing plate to the ceiling using the screws supplied.
Connect the wires as shown in the wiring diagram.
Place the ceiling rose over the fixing plate and tighten the grub screw on the side of the rose to create a water tight seal between the ceiling and light.
Fit the light bulb, then carefully screw the collar of the glass shade to the lamp holder, ensuring you do not damage the seal by over tightening. If you need to replace a seal please contact our customer service team on 01473 826699.
These lights are designed to seal against a flat ceiling, if you are in any way concerned that your ceiling is not suitable, please call us and we will be happy to advise you. Please retain these fitting instructions for future reference.
