Quick Start Guide
MOTION SOLAR SECURITY LIGHT
The solar panel requires full, direct sunlight to charge the battery. Clouds, rain, snow, and other weather conditions may not allow
the solar panel to completely recharge the battery. Other obstructions such as buildings or trees may block the sun as well.
When installing the solar panel, make sure it is aimed toward the sun with a minimum amount of obstructions. If possible,
mount the panel facing toward the southern sky.
Refer to the included full instruction manual “Use and Care Guide” for installation, safety, and additional information.
Operation
1 Adjusting the lamp heads
The lamp heads may be adjusted left or right and up and
down.

3 Determining the motion sensor detection zone
NOTE: When the motion sensor switch is set to the “TEST”
position, the light will operate during the day or night. The light
will stay on for 5 seconds after all motion is stopped.
□Slide the switch to the “TEST” position.
□Slide the “SENS” switch to the “L” (low) position.
□Perform a “walk test”: walk in an arc across the front
of the motion sensor.
□Watch the light. The light will come on and the red
LED will ash indicating motion has been detected.
□Stop, wait for the light to turn off, and then begin
walking again.
□Continue this process until the detection zone has
been established.
□If needed, gently grasp the motion sensor and move
it from side to side or up and down to adjust the
detection zone.

INITIAL BATTERY CHARGE
IMPORTANT: Ensure the solar panel cord is firmly attached to the light fixture cord with no space between the two
connectors.
IMPORTANT: The solar panel requires full, direct sunlight to charge the battery. Clouds, rain, snow, and other weather conditions may not allow the
solar panel to completely recharge the battery. Other obstructions such as buildings or trees may block the sun as well.
When installing the solar panel, make sure it is aimed as described below with a minimum amount of obstructions. If possible, mount the panel facing
toward the southern sky.
□PRIOR TO USE, the battery will require 2 to 5 days of full sun to completely charge with the control switch in
the OFF position. Plug the solar panel cable into the connector extending from the bottom of the battery case.
If possible, aim the solar panel toward the south and tilt it approximately 50° from horizontal. If the solar panel
cannot be aimed toward the south, then tilt the panel approximately 30° if possible.
□Actual operating time will vary depending upon how frequently the light is turned on by the motion sensor.
□Solar lighting is not designed to equal standard 120V lighting. The amount of light output is reduced to allow the
sun time to fully recharge the battery between lighting cycles.
□Solar collection is only effective in direct sunlight. Every hour the light is on requires a minimum of 16 hours of
sunlight charging. Solar panels collect less than 10% of the sun’s energy.
To ensure the maximum RUN TIME solar performance:
□Slide the control switch to the “AUTO” position.
□Slide the “SENS” switch to the “M” (medium)
position.
□Set the time dial HALFWAY between 5S and 1MIN.

Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause Solution
The light xture is not
charging.
The solar panel is not COMPLETELY
connected to the light xture.
Ensure the solar panel connector is fully
inserted into the light xture connector.
There should be NO gap.
The light xture ashes ON
and OFF repeatedly.
The light xture is in TEST mode. Set the light xture motion sensor to
the OFF or AUTO (5 seconds to 1 minute)
setting.
The light xture is charging
but does not come on at night.
The motion sensor is set to the OFF
position.
Set the light xture motion sensor to the
AUTO (5 seconds to 1 minute) setting.
