Position solar panel to receive the maximum amount of sunlight.
Do not position the solar panel under a light as this
will prevent the light from switching on at night.
First unplug the display switch used for the“try me” packaging. Although there may be
some charge left in the battery we recommend fully charging it before first use. Leave
the switch in the off position for 2 sunny days to ensure the battery is fully charged. Once
fully charged switch to auto, the light will automatically illuminate when it gets dark.
You can cover the solar panel to test that the light is operating.

Rechargeable batteries become less efficient with repeated charge-discharge cycles and
the battery capacity reduces. If you find that the battery appears to be less efficient or
does not run for long we suggest you first try to boost charge it. Switch off for 3 to 5
sunny days to allow the maximum charge to the battery. If after this boost charge your
battery still does not perform to expectations you should replace it.All our batteries are
covered by a 1 year warranty.
To change the battery remove 4 screws and open the compartment as shown, remove
the existing batteries and replace with new ones. Only use Ni-MH or Ni-Cd
rechargeable batteries. Please ensure that the battery is disposed of according
to local regulations.

batteries.These batteries are then used to power the light.When switched on the lights
automatically illuminate at night by using a light sensor.The duration of illumination will
depend on the amount of sunlight and therefore charge received by the batteries.
