Step 5. Put the solar umbrella in the sunlight to
charge the batteries before the first use as shown
in Fig. 5.
Make sure to charge the batteries for
at least 8 hours before the first use.
Otherwise it will shorten lifespan of the
batteries and decrease performance. If
charging the solar panel while attached
to the umbrella, make sure the switch on
the pole is in the off position.
Step 6. Turn the crank handle in
the clockwise direction to open the
umbrella canopy, in the opposite
direction to close the canopy. To
close the umbrella it must be in the
upright position. Turn the crank handle
in the clockwise direction and it will
automatically tilt the umbrella to an
angle. It will automatically come
back to original position if turning the
crank handle in the counterclockwise
direction. Press the light switch to
turn on/off the solar lights.
Reverse the set-up steps above to
take down the umbrella.

You must charge batteries before first use.
Please note that batteries can discharge if they are left unused or uncharged for a
long period of time. Since there can be a six-month period between production and
final customer purchase, we recommend you charge your solar umbrella for at least 8
hours in direct sunlight before the first use. Failure to charge the batteries will result in
premature dimming of the lights in your new solar umbrella. Make sure the light switch
is in the off position when charging the solar panel.
For everyday normal use, turn on the light switch in the night-time when you want to
use solar light and turn off the switch after use. And make sure the light switch is in the
off position in the daytime for the solar panel to recharge the batteries.
Please remove the plastic film on all solar panels, hubs, and lights as this protective
coating is to prevent damage in shipping.
We recommend that you change the batteries in your solar light umbrella
every year or when you feel the light output is diminished. Buy three (3)
AA size Ni-MH 1200mAh (minimum) (1300mAh are supplied with panel)
rechargeable batteries from any major retailer.
Tools required: Phillips head screw driver (not included)
Step 1. Twist
counterclockwise and
remove the solar panel
from the top of the
umbrella as shown in
Fig 7.
Step 4. Carefully open
the bottom case and
set aside. 10. Replace
the batteries, matching
the +/- on the batteries
with the +/- on the
battery case as shown
in Fig. 10.
Step 2. Pull the plug
out of the socket under
the solar panel. Pull by
holding the plug, not by
pulling on the wires.
Step 5. Carefully
put the bottom case
back. Align the screw
holes and replace the
screws. Do not over
tighten the screws as
shown in Fig. 11.
Your solar umbrella is
ready to use again!
For everyday normal use,
turn on the light switch in
the night-time when you
want to use solar light
and turn off the switch
after use. And make
sure the light switch is
in the off position in the
daytime for the solar
panel to recharge the
batteries.
Step 3. Put the solar
panel upside down on a
flat, non-abrasive surface
to avoid scratching.
Loosen all four (4)
screws on the solar
panel bottom case as
shown in Fig. 9.
