Maintenance
Clean the solar panels regularly with a damp towel to guarantee optimum performance. Do not use any type of solvent for cleaning and be careful not to put too much pressure on the solar panels while cleaning.
Troubleshooting
If your solar light does not come on as expected despite observance of all the instructions, please try the following steps:
- Make sure that the solar lamp is not being affected by any other light source.
- Ensure the solar lamp is not positioned in the shade during the day.
- Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
NOTE: The performance of the solar lamp will vary with the time of year.
It will last longer when it has had a full day in the sun rather than a day in
overcast weather.
WINTERTIME TIPS: For optimal performance, be sure to remove any snow or
debris accumulation from solar panel(s). A solar panel free of debris will
charge the batteries much more efficiently.
WARNING: Please keep out of reach of children. Do not dispose of the Li-
Ion battery in the regular trash, municipal waste stream or by fire as
batteries may leak or explode. Do not open, short circuit, or mutilate
batteries as injury may occur. Preserve our environment by recycling Li-Ion
batteries or disposing of them in accordance with local, State and federal
regulations. Do not mix old and new batteries.
