Solar-powered Welcome Light 6942 Instructions
Location of the Solar-powered Welcome Light
1) The unit must be located in a position where it can get direct sunlight on the
solar panel, and generally free from cover and shade. When locating a
suitable position for the unit remember that it detects an area of 60°
vertically and 120° horizontally, with a maximum range of 10 metres.
(As shown in diagram below).
2) Make sure the sensor on the lamps body is not going to be affected by
another light source.
3) The unit must be left to charge for two sunny days before first time use so
that best results are achieved.
Assembly Instructions
1) Loosen the 2 bottom screws and remove the mounting plate of the solar
door-light from the lamp body.
2) Choose the wall you want to attach the motion sensor light to. Use the
mounting plate of the solar door-light as a guide to drill the 2 necessary holes
into the wall.
3) Remove the mounting plate from the wall and insert the plastic wall plugs
into the 2 drilled holes.
4) Move the switch on the back of the unit to the OFF position.
5) Attach the unit through the mounting plate on the wall using 2 of the
provided large screws.
6) Attach the unit onto the mounting plate.
7) After two days full charge by sunlight, move the switch to the ON position.
The unit will start to work when the level of light outside has decreased
sufficiently to warrant the need for the light. Working time will be about 30
seconds after the sensor gets a detection signal.
Lamp for First Time Use
1) Turn the button to the “OFF” position so that the batteries can be fully
charged before use.
2) For first use, let the batteries charge for two days. After the second day turn
the button to the “ON” position to assure the unit will begin to work
normally.
Regular Operation
1) Turn the switch to the “ON” position, it will automatically charge at daytime
and work during the night time.
2) The performance of the unit will vary with the time of year. It will deliver more
light when it has had a full day in the sun rather than a day in overcast
weather.
Replacing the batteries
1) Remove the plastic cover of the unit.
2) Take off the 4 screws with a screwdriver from the middle cover and remove
the old Ni-MH battery pack with plug. Only replace with a `4 AAA’ 700mAh
4.8v Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack.
3) Install the new battery pack in to the battery compartment, ensuring the plug
is fixed securely.
4) Re-assemble the unit by reversing the above procedure.
Trouble Shooting
If the motion sensor light does not come on when approached, please try the
following steps:
1) Make sure that the motion sensor light is not being affected by any other
light source.
2) Ensure the motion sensor light does not stand in the shade during the day.
3) Make sure the switch is in the ON position pushed fully to the left.
4) Check that the battery pack is installed correctly.
IMPORTANT!
When storing any solar product for an extended period of time, be sure to
remove the batteries. Storing any solar product without regular recharge or
removal could cause permanent damage to the rechargeable batteries.
