Instruction Manual
Model: GS-122PIR

Solar Lamp Location:
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.
NOTE: The Light fixture is for OUTDOOR USE only and will not work properly indoor because
of the PIR sensor module.
DO NOT INSTALL THE LIGHT INDOOR!
Installation Instructions (Fig. 1)
1. Install the solar panel using the 2 screws provided no more than 6ft from the light
fixture. Refer to the “solar lamp location” paragraph before choosing the installation
location.
2. Use an electric drill to make two holes in the wall, place provided anchors into holes,
place the wall bracket in line with the holes and secure the solar panel with the
provided screws.
3. Assemble the light fixture into the wall bracket using the provided screws.
4. Connect the wire from the light fixture to the solar panel.

Maintenance
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.
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 panel is not being affected by any other light source.
2. Ensure the solar panel is not positioned in the shade during the day.
3. Make sure the switch in the lamp head is the On () position.
4. Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
NOTE: The performance of the solar lamp 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. A solar panel free of debris will charge the batteries much more efficiently.
WARNING: Please keep out of reach of children.
