Instruction Manual

Solar Lamp Location:
Tools that are needed but not supplied
with the solar post lamps are:
a screwdriver, power drill.
For optimum light duration throughout the night, it is very important to place the
solar panel in a spot where it will receive the maximum amount of direct sunlight
throughout the day. Also, for best results install your solar panel facing the south.
1. Align the Light wall bracket (C) on a wall where you plan to install the
Solar security light, and mark the hole locations with a marker/pencil.
2. Use an electric drill to make two holes in the wall, place provided anchors
(E) into holes, place the Light wall bracket (C) in line with the holes and
secure it with the provided screws (E).
Make sure the bracket is installed with the arrow facing UP.
3. Slide the Light w/ motion sensor (A) into the installed wall bracket (C).
4. If your Light location is exposed to the sun, you can simply slide the Solar
panel (B) into the Light (A) see Fig 1.

Replacing the Batteries
Replacement batteries are available
at www.gamasonic.com or via our Toll free number: [phone]
After several years of use, the batteries may need replacing.
1. Unscrew the 2 screws on the bottom of the light (fig. 7).
2. Remove the battery by unclipping the connector.
Make sure the new battery pack is a high quality
Li-ion 3.7V 2000mAh rechargeable battery.
3. Connect the new battery pack and place
into the battery compartment.
4. Reassemble the unit by reversing the above procedure.
WARNING: Do not dispose of Li-Ion batteries in the regular
trash, municipal waste stream or by fire as batteries may leak or
explode. Do not open, short circuit, or mutilate batteries as injury
may occur. Preserve our environment by recycling Li-Ion batteries
or disposing of them in accordance with local, State and federal
regulations. Do not mix old and new batteries.
Maintenance
Clean the solar module regularly with a damp towel to guarantee optimum performance
of the solar panel. Do not use any type of solvent for cleaning and be careful not to put too
much pressure on the module while cleaning.
Trouble Shooting
If your solar charged light does not come on at dusk despite
observance of all the instructions, please try the following steps:
1. Make sure that the solar light is not being affected by any other light source.
2. Ensure the solar light is not positioned in the shade during the day.
3. Make sure the switch at the bottom of the light is in the "ON" position.
4. Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
NOTE: The performance of the solar light will vary with the time of year. It will deliver
longer duration when it has had a full day in the sun rather than a day in overcast
weather.
WINTERTIME TIPS: For optimal performance, be sure to remove any snow or debris
accumulation from solar panel(s). A solar panel free of debris will charge the batteries
much more efficiently.
WARNING: Please keep out of reach of children.
