pause, the light will turn on for 20-30 seconds when connected correctly. If this does not happen, there are
troubleshooting suggestions below.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If light does not turn on when batteries are connected:
•Check the battery harness polarity –red wire must be connected to positive (+) terminal and black wire to
negative (-).
•During storage, batteries do slowly discharge but will remain sufficiently charged for at least a year. Our
lights’adaptive capability will recharge discharged batteries in most circumstances by simply installing the
light in a sunny location. If the light does not illuminate at all when the batteries are connected, they are
likely very low and may need charging. In this case, please email [e-mail] or call 1-
844-279-8754 for assistance.
