Pre-Installation
PLANNING INSTALLATION
Compare all parts in the package with the Package Contents list. Verify that all parts are included and that there is no
damage. If any parts are missing or damaged, contact the Customer Service Team at 1-855-HD-HAMPTON or visit
www.HamptonBay.com.
Choose an installation location where direct sunlight can be absorbed onto the face of the solar panel for as many hours
as possible throughout the day. Shadows cast by homes, trees, and structures will restrict the charging of the batteries
and affect the total hours of operation of the lights.
These lights can be installed onto a deck post, or simply placed on a flat surface such as a table. This manual details
deck post installations. For placing on a at surface such as a table, follow the Preparing the Solar light step in the
installation section below.
NOTE: The batteries come pre-charged but
some discharge may happen during storage or
transit.
HOW SOLAR WORKS
During daylight hours, the sun will charge the batteries in the solar panel and the lights will turn on at dusk. Light output
depends upon how much light the solar panel receives. Position the solar panel so that it receives maximum sunlight. If
there are streetlights or other lighting that could shine directly into or near the solar panel, these lights may trigger the light
sensor and the lights may turn off. The solar panel must sense darkness to operate.

Deck Post Installation
1 Installing the solar lights 2 Preparing the solar lights
□Position one of the solar lights (A) over a deck post.
□Attach the solar light (A) to the deck post by
inserting screws (AA) through the holes in the
bottom of the solar light (A) and into the deck post.
□Repeat these steps for the other solar light (A).
NOTE: To allow each battery to reach full capacity
and perform correctly, pull out the plastic tab and
place the solar light in full sunlight for the rst 12
hours. Failure to do so can shorten the life of the
battery or operation of the light. On cloudy or rainy
days it may take several days for the batteries to fully
charge.
NOTE: To protect the solar panel from damage, do
not use force during assembly. Keep the plastic
shades in the packaging until you need to install
them.
□Remove the protective film from the solar panels
located on top of the cover (B).
□Move the solar light (A) switches to the ON position.
