esotec Super Spot pro Duo Color User manual

3. Function and intended Use
The solar spot is designed for all season outdoor use. It consists of a high-
quality aluminum design and thus ensures a long-term function for many
years.
The solar module has to be positioned facing the sun. For the optimal
positioning, it is possible to mount the solar module onto the lamp in two
different variants.Asouth, east or west side is recommended for the mounting
of the module. Shadowy north sides are not appropriate for solar lamps.
The integrated rechargeable battery is charged by the solar module
installed upper side of the solar module. The solar module consists of
high-quality Kyocera solar cells and is laminated behind glass absolutely
weatherproof. This is the same production technology which is also used
for large powerful solar modules.
This lamp is equipped with an automatic energy management. This
specically developed function ensures the optimal utilization of the stored
energy in the rechargeable battery throughout the entire year. The lamp is
automatically switched on at dusk. The luminous power is automatically
reduced to 70% after three hours. The luminous power is reduced to
50% after another three ours. The lamp is automatically switched off after
another two hours. That means, that the lamp is usually lit the whole night
in the summer half-year and that a signicant optimization of the duration
of the light ON time can be achieved in the winter half-year.
4 powerful Nichia light emitting diodes (LEDs) are used as light source.
Those LEDs guarantee a high luminosity with a low current consumption
and a lifetime of more than 50000 hours.
The light color can be selected between warm white or cold white by means
of a switch.
Note: During longer periods with insufcient insolation, the accumulator is
charged insufciently via the sunlight. However, that does not mean that
the solar lamp is defective. Please wait for the next sunny days and the
light will work accordingly.
The rechargeable battery has to be exchanged every 2 years on
average!
4. Putting into Operation
1. Please carefully take all parts out of the package.
2. Mount the solar module onto the spot by means of the screw and nut.
The module can be mounted in two different variants depending on the
place of installation. Thus, you are able to optimally adjust the module
to the sun depending on the local circumstances (illustration 1).
3. Now mount the aluminum ground spike onto the spot by means of the
assembly material (illustration 2).
4. Move the switch at the bottom side of the solar module into the position
„ON“ (illustration 3).
5. The pressure switch on the other side of the solar module is used to
select between the light colors cold white or warm white (illustration 4).
6. Now rmly insert the spot with the ground spike into the ground. Adjust
the beam according to the local circumstances and tighten the screw
on the ground spike.
7. Now, adjust the solar module free from shadows facing the sun and
also tighten the screw on the solar module.
The spot is now ready for use!

Rechargeable battery notes
- Rechargeable batteries should not be played with by children. Never
leave rechargeable batteries lying around; they could be swallowed
by children or pets.
- Rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, disassembled
or thrown into fire. This leads to a danger of explosion!
- Leaking or damaged rechargeable batteries can cause chemical
burns when they come into contact with skin. For this reason, please
make use of suitable protective gloves.
- Rechargeable batteries should only be replaced by structurally iden-
tical rechargeable batteries from the same manufacturer. Normal
batteries must not be used since these are not rechargeable.
- Make sure the rechargeable batteries are inserted with the correct
polarity.
- For long periods of time of non-use (for example, storage), remove
the inserted rechargeable batteries to avoid damages via the leaking
rechargeable batteries.

Note: The duration of illumination strongly depends on the intensity
and duration of the solar radiation during the day. During the winter
months please generally expect a shorter light ON time. If the lamp
should not shine on the rst evening, please wait for a sunny day.
5. Automatic Energy Management
This specically developed function ensures the optimal utilization of the
stored energy in the rechargeable battery.
The lamp is automatically switched on at dusk. The luminous power is
automatically reduced to 70% after three hours. The luminous power
is reduced to 50% after another three ours. The lamp is automatically
switched off after another two hours. That means, that the lamp is usually lit
the whole night in the summer half-year and that a signicant optimization
of the duration of the light ON time can be achieved in the winter half-year.
6. Exchange of the rechargeable Battery
On average, the battery in the light globe has to be exchanged by a new
and identical in construction battery every two years. Used here is a Li-ion
battery with 3.2 V/ 1500 mAh. A replacement battery is available from your
retailer or the manufacturer under www.esotec.de
Proceed as follows when exchanging the battery:
1. Move the switch at the bottom side of the solar module into the position
(OFF).
2. Unscrew the 4 screws at the bottom side of the solar module with an
appropriate screwdriver and carefully remove the lid.
3. Take out the used battery and
replace it by a new, identical in
construction battery (illustration
5). Pay attention to the correct
polarity of the battery when
inserting it!
4. Now reattach the lid and screw
the 4 screws back in with a
suitable screwdriver.
5. Move the switch at the bottom
side of the solar module into
the position (ON). The spot is
ready for use again!
7. Malfunctions
1. The lamp is getting darker and darker at night!
Remedy: The lamp is equipped with an energy management. See item
5.
2. The globe is not activated at darkness!
Remedy: The battery in the lamp has reached the end of its lifetime?
The batteries shall usually be exchanged by new and identical in
construction batteries every two years!
Remedy: Is the switch at the bottom side of the solar module in position
„ON“?
Remedy: It the solar module illuminated by extraneous light (e.g.
spot)? Position the lamp at a darker place.
