  • 1. Verify product and site compatibility
    Confirm the bulb is an E27 base, ST64 vintage-shaped bulb and is rated for 240V (as shown on the product). Ensure the lamp holder is E27 and that the fixture is suitable for a 240V lamp.
  • 2. Prepare for installation
    Turn off the light switch and, if possible, isolate the circuit at the switch or fuse board before starting. Allow any existing bulb to cool. Place a ladder securely if required.
  • 3. Remove the existing bulb
    Using gloves or a cloth, carefully unscrew and remove the existing bulb from the E27 fitting. Dispose of the old bulb in accordance with local regulations.
  • 4. Install the Shelly Vintage bulb
    Screw the Shelly Vintage E27 ST64 into the E27 fitting until secure. Do not overtighten. Ensure the bulb sits correctly and that there is no visible damage to the lamp or holder.
  • 5. Restore power safely
    Restore the switched power or circuit. Switch the lamp on to verify the bulb receives mains power. If the bulb does not light or there are signs of sparking or unusual smells, switch off the circuit immediately and consult a trained electrician.
  • 6. Prepare your smartphone and network
    Ensure your smartphone or tablet is connected to the local WiFi network. The manufacturer and exact app are not specified in the product data; use the Shelly mobile app if available or a compatible smart-home app. Have your WiFi credentials ready.
  • 7. Add the bulb to your app
    Open the Shelly app or the compatible app you intend to use. Follow the app's instructions to add a new device. Typical steps are: start device discovery, select the bulb when it appears, and enter WiFi details when prompted. Use the app to assign a name, room and preferences, and to enable scheduling and remote control features where available.
  • 8. Configure basic settings
    In the app, configure schedules, scenes or timers as required. Verify remote control and scheduling operate as expected from the app while on the same network and, if applicable, from a remote connection (via the app's cloud features).
  • 9. Troubleshooting
    If the bulb is not discovered by the app: confirm power is on, ensure your phone is on the same WiFi network, move closer to the WiFi access point, and try restarting the bulb by switching power off for 10 seconds and on again. If problems persist, consult the manufacturer documentation or support.
  • 10. Ongoing safety and maintenance
    Do not open or attempt to repair the bulb. Replace the bulb only with the same type and rating. For any electrical faults, wiring changes or if you need to fit into fixed wiring enclosures, engage a trained electrician.
