You leave one lamp off, u turn the switch on another to the first setting of normal brightness, then u turn the switch on the third lamp to extra bright, and u will know which switch goes to which lamp.

Turn the first switch on. wait 5 mins. turn it off. turn the second switch on and turn it off. go in the room. the one that is warm is the first switch, the one that is hot is the second switch and the one that is cool is the third switch.
