The fixture emits a softly diffused downward directed light, free of glare. It fades in at a fixed light level, when turned on, and fades out, when turned off, and has a timer function to turn off the light automatically after either four or eight hours. The fixture offers a wide light distribution for its relatively small size and the white-painted inner side of the shade helps reflect the light comfortably. With the stepless dimmer, the light can be adjusted to a suitable level between 15 and 100%. The arm has a stationary angle of 15° and can rotate 342° around the base, while the head can tilt and rotate to direct the light distribution.
