Important Safety Instructions
!
This luminaire is intended for installation in accordance with local codes and
the National Electric Code (NEC). Failure to adhere to these codes and in-
structions may result in serious injury, property damage and void the warran-
t y.
These instructions do not intend to cover all variations in installation, opera-
tion maintenance or mounting situations.
Please note that these solar xtures are equipped with built-in photocells, so
they will not turn on until it is dark enough. These xtures will also require
plenty of sunlight to function properly. It’s best to place the xture in an
area where the sun will get to it through out the day and where no ambient
lighting will affect the photocell at night. If your xture is not functioning
at night, be sure that the on/off button has been engaged. See step one for
details.
