3. Intended Use
The solar module built into the upper part converts sunlight into electricity. The
built-in battery is charged with this energy.
The light can be operated in three different modes depending on the time of
year and the installation location. These operating modes can be conveniently
selected using a button on the PIR sensor.
When the battery is empty, the light switches off automatically. The solar light
is suitable for year-round outdoor use. The nighttime lighting duration is heavily
dependent on the amount of sunlight and the angle of incidence on the solar
module during the day. Solar lights must always be placed in the sunlight
without shadows. Operation on the north side or in the shade of trees or
bushes is not recommended!
4. Installation
1. Carefully remove the parts from
the packaging.
2. Mount the lamp in the intended
location using the ground spike or
the supplied screws and dowels
(point 1).
Note: Please note the detection
range of the motion sensor. The
detection angle is 120° and the
range is max. 8 m.
3. 3 different operating modes can
be selected using the button on
the PIR sensor (point 2). The solar module should be covered.
Proceed as follows:
Note: When switching on and changing the operating modes, the lamp
lights up for a short time until the corresponding mode is activated.
- press button: (Mode A): The lamp
does not light up in the dark, upon
movement the lamp lights up with
600 lm, 10 seconds after the last
movement the light switches off!
- press button: (Mode B): The lamp
shines at a dimmed level with 20
lm in the dark, upon movement the
lamp shines with 400 lm, 10 sec-
onds after the last movement the
lamp goes back to 20 lm.
- press button: (Mode C): The lamp always shines at 100 lm in the dark.
The PIR sensor is switched off.
- press button: Lamp switched off, battery is still being charged!
Note: The duration of the light depends heavily on the intensity and dura-
tion of sunlight during the day. In the winter months, you can generally
expect less lighting time. If the light does not light up on the first evening,
please wait for a sunny day.
5. Changing the battery
1. Switch off the light with the button
next to the PIR sensor and remove
the lamp base..
2. Loosen the two screws on the under-
side of the solar module and remove
the cover.
3. Take out the old battery and discon-
nect the connector.
4. Replace the battery with an identical
type and reconnect the connector.
Note: The plug connection is protect-
ed against polarity reversal. Please
do not use force!
5. Put the cover back on and screw
the screws back in with a suitable
screwdriver.
6. Now switch the light back to the
desired operating mode using the
button on the PIR motion sensor (see
point 4).
Note: Used batteries or accumulators must be disposed of in an environ-
mentally friendly manner and do not belong in the household waste. Your
dealer is legally obliged to take back old batteries.
