About Your Solar Light
During the day your solar panel will convert the sun's light
and/or UV rays into electrical power that will charge the
rechargeable battery. When it becomes dark, the solar light will
turn on using the power stored on the rechargeable battery as it
will detect no day light. The units light output strength and time
depends on how many hours and how much sunlight and/or UV
rays your panel absorbs throughout the day.
For maximum output place the solar panel in an area where
there is direct sunlight for at least 8 hours in a given day. Do not
install your solar light in a shaded area. The selected location
should not be near night time light sources such as; porch lights,
street lights or pool lights as these may cause the solar light to
turn off prematurely.
Important
•Fully charge the battery before first use. Charge under direct
sunlight in the <OFF> position for 2 days.
•For best results, locate your solar lamp in a position where it
can get direct sunlight on the solar panel and generally free
from cover and shade.
•Keep your solar lights away from other night-time light
sources, such as streetlights.
•Make sure the solar panels are not covered by dust, snow
and debris. Clean it with a soft damp cloth or paper towel
periodically. Avoid the use of abrasive cleaning agents.
•Use only rechargeable batteries for your solar lights. Replace
with a new battery of the same size each year for optimum
performance.
•The performance of the solar light will vary with the time of
year. It will deliver more light when it has had a full day in
the sun rather than a day in overcast weather.
