ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS / INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:

Unpack the components carefully. Please check all parts have been removed from the packaging. Before using first time Allow lamp to charge for at least 8 hours in full sunlight with the ON/OFF switch in the ON position. The ON/OFF switch is located next to the solar panel. Once the batteries are fully charged, set the ON/OFF switch to ON. If the lamp does not turn on after dark refer to Maintenance section. Find an ideal Place for the Solar Light. Place the solar light in an area where it will receive direct sunlight for at least 8 hours per day. The number of hours the light will illuminate is directly proportional to the hours of sunlight it receives. If the light is placed in a shaded area, it will not be able to fully charge and its illumination time will be limited. Do not place the light near other outdoor lighting like porch or streetlights. These may fool the sensor and keep the light from coming on, or cause it to turn off automatically.

  1. Clean solar panel with a soft sponge every couple of weeks.
  2. Make sure all connectors are still tight and no water getting in.
