Safety Information

READ ENTIRE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE BEFORE YOU BEGIN!

to 122°F. (At temperatures above 92°F, the passive infrared (PIR) sensor may not detect body heat.)
WARNING!| Do not look directly at the LEDs for an extended period of time. They can cause eye damage.
WARNING!| Use alkaline batteries only. Do not use carbon zinc batteries and DO NOT mix battery type.
WARNING!| The components of this fixture are not serviceable.
Attempting to alter the fixture for any reason may result in voiding the warranty and could result in creating a dangerous situation.
ATTENTION| LEDs can be damaged by electrostatic discharge shock. To remove this hazard, touch a grounded bare metal surface to discharge yourself before installation.
ATTENTION| Cold weather may affect the performance of the fixture. Alkaline batteries can lose voltage when temperatures are near freezing. This will affect the performance of the PIR in your fixture. The security light will perform as expected when temperatures rise.

Things to Consider Prior to Mounting

SELECT A LOCATION THAT ALLOWS THE SENSOR TO PERFORM AT ITS PEAK EFFICIENCY.
MINIMUM MOUNTING HEIGHT: 8 FT.
OPTIMAL MOUNTING HEIGHT: 8-10 FT.
Mounting above 10 ft. can decrease the sensor detection range.
DO NOT mount near light sources (street lights, traffc).

PASSIVE INFRARED (PIR) SENSOR ZONE
WALL/SURFACE MOUNT

Adjusting the Light Heads
The individual light heads can be adjusted up/down and left/right to aim the light heads in the direction desired.

THE FIXTURE USES A PASSIVE INFRARED (PIR) MOTION SENSOR AND AS SUCH DETECTS CHANGES IN INFRARED RADIATION OF WARM OBJECTS MOVING ACROSS THE DETECTION ZONES.
The PIR sensor can be triggered by a variety of sources including dryer vents, hot tubs, idling vehicles, etc.
The PIR sensor CANNOT detect motion through plexiglass, plastic, or glass barriers.
DO NOT aim the PIR toward areas with pedestrian and motorized traffc and/or other objects that generate heat.
DO NOT mount near nighttime light sources (street lights, traffc). Light sources can cause the light to operate in daylight mode.

How to Attach the Light

1. Remove the mounting plate by turning counterclockwise until it comes loose.

2. a Masonry: Locate the open holes for mounting at the mid-line of the mounting plate and drill a pilot hole in the center. If mounting onto brick or masonry, drill a 3/16 in. hole and place the masonry anchors in the pilot holes and hammer them into place until flush with surface. Place washer over the mounting hole and drive long screws into masonry anchor until snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
   MASONRY 2b Wood: If mounting onto wood surface, drill a 1/16 in. hole and use the wood screws and washers provided to secure the mounting plate.

3. Make sure rubber grommets are in place behind the screw heads before screwing in to ensure proper watertight seal.

How to Install/Replace the Batteries

Remove Battery Compartment Cover

1. Remove the screw on the battery compartment cover. Remove the battery compartment cover. Use alkaline batteries only. Do not use carbon zinc batteries and DO NOT mix battery type.
   Insert Batteries

2.  Insert 3 new alkaline C cell batteries (not included) into the battery compartment and orient them with the “+” and “-” markings on the back of the battery compartment. Re-attach the battery compartment cover to close. Secure with screw. When ready to use, turn the switch, located below the battery compartment, to “ON.” There will be an approximate 15-second delay for the fixture to light up, even if there is motion. This will occur every time the fixture is turned “OFF” and back “ON” at the switch or the batteries are changed. Do not mix old and new batteries. Cold weather may have a negative impact on battery life. Re-attach Battery Compartment Cover

3. Attach the security light to the mounting plate by positioning the security light over the mounting plate at an angle.
   Engage the security light into the grooves of the mounting base and secure by twisting clockwise until the security light is seated vertically.

Low Battery Indicator Light
The red LED low battery indicator, inside the motion sensor, will light up when the batteries are low and need replacing.
Repeat all 2-3 steps on this page and replace the batteries.

Make sure fixture is locked tightly onto the mounting plate to create a seal to prevent water from entering from the back.

Motion Sensor

The light turns on when the motion sensor detects movement. Sensor detects motion up to 40 ft. The 180-degree coverage of the motion sensor is measured side-to-side. The sensor is more effective side-to-side, rather than motion coming straight at it (in-and-out). Fixed timer is 15 seconds; the light will stay on for 15 seconds after motion detection (only during night hours).
Extreme hot or cold weather could aFFect the performance of the built-in sensors that detect body heat. Certain winter clothing can shield a person’s body heat from the sensor during extreme cold weather. During extreme hot weather, the sensor may not be able to distinguish the difference between normal body temperatures and the surrounding high temperatures. The sensor works as expected once weather conditions return to normal.

Troubleshooting Guide

to ensure it is closed and secured with the screw.
5. Movement is taking place outside of
the motion sensor detection area.| 5. Fixture detects motion up to 40 ft. Make sure it is positioned within that range.
Light continuously cycles ON and OFF (strobe effect).| 1. Light sensor is triggered by reflected light from the security light itself.| 1. Change the position of the light heads, aiming light away from the reflecting surfaces.
2. Heat is being reflected from other sources and may be triggering the sensor on and off.| 2. Remove heat source from detection zone or move fixture to new location.
Light turns on during daylight hours.| 1. Light may be installed in shadows/dark area.| 1. Move fixture to a lit area; without shadows.
Light comes on for no apparent reason.| 1. Hot air (dryer vent, car exhaust, etc.) may be triggering the sensor.| 1. Remove heat source from detection zone or move fixture to new location.
Light stays on continuously at night.| 1. Motion sensor may be picking up a continuous flow of warm air from an air vent, dryer vent, or heat reflecting off a surface.| 1. Remove heat source from detection zone. Move fixture to new location.
Reposition the motion sensor.
