For optimum light duration throughout
the night, it is very important to mount
your solar lamp in a spot where it will
receive the maximum amount
of direct sunlight throughout
the day.
NOTE: For best results,
the solar light must be
charged in the “ON”
position for at
least 2 days of full
direct sunlight.
This lamp is made from a Rigid Resin
material which is all season weather
resistant. It also has UV protection that
protects the finish from harsh sunlight.

construction makes it the perfect lamp

Troubleshooting
Clean the solar panels regularly with a damp towel to guarantee optimum performance. Do not use any type of
solvent for cleaning and be careful not to put too much pressure on the solar panels while cleaning.
WARNING: Do not dispose of Li-Ion batteries in the regular trash, municipal waste stream or by re 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.
If your solar light does not come on as expected despite observance of all the instructions, please try the
following steps:
1. Make sure that the solar lamp is not being aected by any other light source.
2. Ensure the solar lamp is not positioned in the shade during the day.
3. Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
NOTE: The performance of the solar lamp will vary with the time of year. It will last longer when it has had a full
day in the sun rather than a day in overcast weather.
WARNING: Please keep out of reach of children. Do not dispose of the Li-Ion battery 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.
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 eciently.
