USER SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS:
SAFETY PLUG WITH REPLACEABLE FUSE:
Risk of fire. Do not replace attachment plug. Contains a safety device (fuse) that should not be removed. Discard
product if the attachment plug is damaged. The most common reason for a fuse to blow is due to overload from too
many sets being strung together.
1. Make sure the light set is unplugged.
2. To unplug, grasp plug and remove from the receptacle or other
outlet device. Do not unplug by pulling the cord.
3. Risk of fire. Replace fuse only with 125 volt, 3 amp fuse (provided with this product).
4. Locate the fuse panel on the plug. Slide the panel open to expose the fuses inside (as shown).
5. Remove fuse carefully. Replace the blown (darkened) fuse with the spare fuse included in this
set. Close the panel completely by sliding the fuse access cover closed on top of attachment plug.
NOTE: LEDs in this set are non-replaceable. Tampering with this set will void the warranty.
Connecting Sets End to End
When multiple products are connected together, do not exceed the lowest of the indicated maximum wattage
on the cord tag near the connected product's receptacle.
This lighting string is rated 30 Watts ( 0.25 Amps), do not overload.
Connect other lighting strings or decorative outfits end-to-end up to a maximum of 216 Watts (1.8 Amps) total. If
connecting to a Lighting String that does not have a Wattage (W) rating, on the cord tag within 6 inches of the
plug, calculate the wattage as follows: Multiply the current (A), which is also on that cord tag, by 120.
For example: The Lighting String is rated 120V, 60Hz, 0.2Amps. 0.2x 120 = 24Watts.
Add the wattage of each light string together for a total of 216 Watts or less. (Do not exceed 216 Watts.)
