  2. Hooks
  3. On/off button
  4. Solar module
  5. Housing

Installation

7.1 Selecting the installation location
Position the product in a place where the solar panel (4) is exposed to full sunlight so that the battery can charge during the day.
Note that:

  • The solar panel (4) should be exposed to maximum sunlight. Do not place the product in the shade or under cover.
  • Avoid direct vicinity to other light sources such as garden or street lamps, as these may prevent the product from switching on automatically when it gets dark.
  • The wall on which the product is installed must be stable, firm and level.

7.2 Mounting on the wall
Ensure there are no electrical wires or pipes that could be damaged while drilling holes on the mounting surface and installing fasteners. Inadvertently drilling through electric cables can cause a life-threatening electric shock!

  1. Measure the distance between the hooks (2) and mark the drilling points on the wall surface.
    Tip:
    – Use a paper template to mark the drill holes.

  2. Drill the holes.

  3. Place the enclosed dowels in the boreholes.

  4. Insert the supplied screws. Do not turn the screws all the way to the stop position (they should protrude slightly from the wall).

  5. Remove the cover from the on/off button (3).

  6. Hang the product onto the screws. Make sure the product is securely in place before letting go.

Operation

8.1 Charging the product
When using for the first time or after prolonged periods of low sunlight, you should fully recharge the battery.

  • The product must be switched on for the battery to charge.
    – Press the on/off button (3) to turn on the light.
    – Bring the product into a dark room or cover the sensor to check whether the light switches on.

  • Switch the product off before it gets dark to prevent the light from switching on and draining the battery.

  • Switch the product back on after sunrise the next day to resume charging.

  • Perform 3 complete charge cycles to fully charge the battery.

Note:
– In direct sunlight, a full charge takes approx. 4-6 hours.
8.2 Enabling/disabling the light function
Press the ON/OFF button (3) to enable or disable the light function.
Æ When the light function is enabled, the light automatically turns on in the dark (< 2 lx) and turns off during daylight (> 200 lx).

Troubleshooting

Problem Cause Solution
The light does not turn on automatically. There is a nearby light source
causing interference with the light sensor. Make sure the product is not

installed in the direct vicinity
of other light sources such as garden or street lamps.
The light function was disabled.| Enable the light function by pressing the ON/OFF button (3).
The light only remains on for a short time.| Long periods of low sunlight (e.g. cloudy weather or in winter) will cause the battery to recharge less during the day.| Select the installation location so that the solar module (4) is exposed to the maximum amount of sunlight.
The capacity of the rechargeable battery has dropped due to aging.| Have the battery replaced by a qualified technician.

Cleaning and care

Important:
– Regular cleaning of the solar module helps to maintain the charging performance and extend the battery life.
– Do not use aggressive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions.
These may damage the product or cause it to malfunction.
– Do not immerse the product in water.

  1. Disable the lighting function by pressing the on/off button (3).
  2. Use a damp, lint-free cloth to clean the product.
