Pre-Installation

PLANNING INSTALLATION

Ensure the mounting location for your solar light allows the solar panel to receive direct sunlight. Do not locate the product in shaded areas as this will significantly reduce performance.

Position the solar light such that during evening hours the ambient light from other light sources does not affect the photosensor built into the solar panel. High ambient light levels can cause the lamp to turn off during evening hours.

.

NOTE: The solar light is equipped with a photosensor that turns the unit on at dusk and off at dawn. Ambient light can affect the operation of the photosensor.

Care and Cleaning

□ The solar panel should be cleaned periodically with a damp cloth to help maintain optimum performance.

□ Do not use any cleaners with chemicals, solvents, or harsh abrasives.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Cause

The nightly run time is shorter.

The solar light does not turn on at night.

The battery is not fully charged.

The battery is reaching the end of its useful life.

Your solar light is inserted with a battery isolator tag in the battery compartment. This isolator tag must be removed prior to use.

The solar light is installed close to other light sources, which may keep the solar light from turning on at night automatically.

Solution

Ensure the solar light is located in an area where it can receive the maximum amount of full, direct sunlight every day. Keeping the solar panel clean is equally important to ensure the maximum charging performance.

Replace the old battery with a Nickel Metal

Hydride rechargeable battery.

Prior to use, check that the battery isolator tag has been removed from the unit and the unit is allowed to charge a full sunny day.

Relocate the fixture or eliminate other light sources.
