- Mount the Bracket: Securely attach the mounting bracket to the ceiling junction box, following the manufacturer's provided instructions.
- Wiring: Connect the electrical wires from the junction box to the corresponding wires on the pendant light fixture. The manual will provide a wiring diagram; ensure all connections are secure.
- Hang the Pendant: Carefully lift the assembled pendant and attach it to the mounting bracket. Adjust the height using the downrods as needed to achieve the desired look.
- Add the Bulb: Install the recommended light bulb (typically a clear or white type A bulb) into the E26 socket.
