Using this lantern is super easy. Just find a good spot outside your home, like near the entrance, and hang it up. Make sure it's securely attached so it won't fall. Plug it into a 110V power outlet, and then you can choose your favorite LED show option. When it comes to maintenance, keep it away from water as it can damage the electrical parts. If it gets dirty, use a dry cloth to gently wipe it. Avoid touching the LEDs directly when the lantern is on to prevent burns. Store it in a dry place when the holiday season is over to keep it in good condition for the next year.
