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 in the lamp head is in the ”ON” position (either
“Low” or “High”).

time, after the snow melts, allow all the batteries to charge in full, direct sunlight for at
least 6 hours to their maximum capacity.
