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 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 affected by any shade during the day.
3. Make sure the light is in 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 of direct 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.
