Using Instructions “Trendy”
3. Intended use
The solar light is designed for interior and exterior use. Its light
changes between 7 colors; however,also a fixed color can be
set it required.
The integrated battery is charged via the solar cell integrated
into the stainless steel base or the included plug-in power supply
(only for interior use).
During solar operation, the light automatically switches on at
dawn and off at daybreak. The light sensor is the solar cell.
The light is produced by 4 highly efficient LEDs. Their power
consumption is low, and their luminosity is high; their average
lifetime exceeds 100,000 hours.
Note: After prolonged period of insufficient sunshine, radiation-
induced battery recharge may be low.
However, the solar light is not defective. After a couple of
sunny days, it will work again as before or charge the bat-
tery with the power supply.
It is recommended to replace the battery every 2 years.
4.Installation
1. Remove the parts cautiously from the packaging.
2.Carefully screw the ball from the base part in a
counterclockwise direction (Figure 1) and carefully remove
the ball.
3. To prevent its theft, you can screw the ball on the floor; refer
to item 5. “Installation of the housing” in this instructions for
use.
4. Insert the plug of the battery unit into the socket on the board
(Figure 2).
Caution: After the plug was inserted, the LEDs will illuminate.
Do not directly look into the light to prevent ocular injuries.
Note: The plug can be inserted only in one orientation to prevent
wrong polarity. Never use excessive force when plugging in.
5. Now put the ball carefully on the base and fix it again by tur-
ning it clockwise. For this purpose, place the base on a table
with the solar battery directing to the front (Figure 3) and put
the ball on the stainless steel base while the notch in the
bayonet lock directs to the rear (Figure 4), then screw the
ball tightly to the base.
6. The solar light is now ready for operation and is charged by
the integrated solar module. Place the ball on a sunny place
with the solar module directing to the front.
Note: The duration of the illumination period strongly depends
on intensity and duration of the duration of sunshine during the
day. Therefore, it is normally shorter in wintertime. If the lamp
does not shine on the first evening, you should wait for another
sunny day.
-Optional operation with the integrated power supply.
1. Insert the plug of the mains power supply into the socket at
the bottom of the circuit board (Figure 5) and plug the power
supply into the mains. The battery is now charged via the
power supply.
2. Now put the ball carefully on the base and fix it again by tur-
ning it clockwise. The solar light is now ready for operation.
Caution: The power supply is
only suitable for interior operation!

8. Battery replacement
1. Remove the ball from the bottom by turning it counterclok-
kwise (Figure 1).
2. Plug off the plug of the battery unit from the board (Figure
12).
3. Press the two tabs at the battery compartment (Figure 12)
and open the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery with a freshly loaded identical battery.
4. Now close the light in the reverse order.
Note: Used batteries should be disposed environmentally friend-
ly and should not be discarded into domestic waste. Your dealer
is legally required to take back old batteries.
9. Troubleshooting
Lamp does not switch
on in the dark
Lamp does not switch
onin the dark or only
for a short period of
time.
-An external light source (e.g. a street lamp) simulates
daylight and prevents switching on of the light. Transfer
the module to a darker place
-Check all connectors for proper connection
-Battery low or defective. Replace the battery every 2
years or earlier.

sign “crossed-out trashcan“ and one of the chemical sym-
bols Cd (= battery contains cadmium), Hg (= battery con-
tains mercury), Pb (= battery contains lead).

6. Fixation of the light color
The light color can be perma-
nently fixed by a switch on the
board (Figure 10). For this pur-
pose, set the switch into the
“STOP” position within 5
seconds after the intended light
color illuminates. The light color
is fixed now. You can return to
the color change mode by sim-
ply switching the switch back.
7. Setting color duration
The duration of individual colors
in the color change mode can
be set to two positions with a
jumper (Figure 11) on the
board. When the jumper is put
on, colors will change approxi-
mately every 15 seconds.
Without jumper, colors will
change after approximately 60
seconds.
5.Installation of the housing
1. Remove the lid of the stainless steel housing by holding its
top with the thumb and releasing it from the bottom with the
fingers (Figure 6).
3. Now retract the top from the bottom by lifting it up (Figure 7).
2. The bottom of the housing has boreholes to fix the light. Use
the provided screws and plugs (Figure 8).
3. Re-insert the top containing the solar module to the bottom
and carefully click the opposite side into place (Figures 7 and
9).
