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.
