Charging & Duration Chart
WARNING: Do not dispose of 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.
Maintenance
Clean the solar panel 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 solar panel 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 lantern is not being affected by any other light
source.
2. Ensure the solar lantern is not positioned in the shade during the day.
3. Make sure the switch in the lamp head is in the “ON” position (either Low
“I” or High “II”).
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
more light 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.
