Maintenance Tips

• Dust Regularly: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently remove dust from the lamp's surfaces.

• Clean Carefully: For greasy spots or fingerprints, use a soft cloth dampened with lukewarm water (below 50°C) and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners and solvents to prevent surface damage.

• Avoid Abrasives: Do not use scouring powders or similar substances, as they can scratch the surface.

• Patina Development: The brass components are untreated and will develop a natural patina over time due to exposure to air. If you prefer a shiny appearance, a suitable polishing agent can be used to remove the patina.

• Battery Care: The lamp features a rechargeable Li-Ion battery. To maintain battery health, avoid overcharging and store the lamp in a cool, dry place when not in use.

• Charging: Use the provided USB-C cable for charging. Ensure the charging port is free from dust and moisture before connecting.

• LED Module: The integrated LED module is designed for long-term use and does not require regular replacement. If replacement becomes necessary, contact Louis Poulsen or a qualified electrician.

• Indoor Use: While the lamp is portable, it is intended for indoor use. Avoid exposing it to moisture or extreme temperatures.
