USER INSTRUCTIONS
1. Instructions, and information about using the battery, and
maximizing its life span:
ATTENTION! The life span of the battery depends on you as well! Please
keep using the product as described in this manual to maximize its life
span for your pleasure:
• Whenever you turn o your light after use, please make sure that
the battery did not run low. If that happens (the light indicates low
voltage by decreasing the luminosity), please load the battery!
• It is recommended to full-charge the light before rst use!
• If you do not use your light for a longer period, please always pay
attention to full-charge the battery ONCE A MONTH! The light can be
stored on the shelf for another month after that. A long-term storage
of the light with totally discharged battery may signicantly reduce
the life span of the battery, or may damage the battery!
ATTENTION! THE STANDBY OPERATION OF THE LIGHT CONSUMES
BATTERY CHARGE AS WELL, WHICH MEANS THAT THE BATTERY IS
BEING DISCHARGED SLOWLY EVEN WHEN YOU DO NOT USE YOUR
LIGHT! THAT IS WHY IT IS KEY ESSENTIAL TO KEEP THE ABOVE WRITTEN
INSTRUCTIONS!
2. Instructions for solar charging, information about charging the
battery:
Charging with the solar panel
• Please pay attention to keep the solar panel clean. Please follow
“Cleaning instructions” below for cleaning your light!
• The blue indicator light on the side of the LED panel keeps blinking
until the solar panel receives enough light for charging. Once the
indicator light stops blinking, it means the solar panel does not
receive sucient light to charge the battery.
• In order to maximize the eciency of solar charging, please set the
solar panel to approximately 45 degrees with the solar panel facing
towards the midday sun.
3. Assembling the light & Installation:
Please pay attention to place your light in a non-shaded place with
sucient sunshine provided for its operation.
Assembling the solar panel with the U-prole bracket, xing on the chosen
surface:
a) Place the solar panel between the beams of the U-prole bracket in
a way that the holes in the end of the beams match the holes on the
solar panel’s frame.
b) The package contains 2 screws, each with a plain washer, a sprung
washer & a nut. Place the smaller sprung washer on the screw, then
push the screw from the solar panel frame’s hole through the U-prole
bracket beam’s hole, connecting the 2 elements. Repeat this step with
the hole on the other side of the solar panel frame, and the other
beam’s hole.
c) Place the larger plain washers on the end of the screws, then drive in
the nuts on both screws. Tighten the nuts to an extent where you can
4 5

adjust the angle of the solar panel, but it is sti enough to remain in
the set position.
d) Mark the places of the xing holes of the U-prole bracket with the
solar panel on the chosen surface.
e) Drill the 2 holes.
f) Push the 2 screws together with the hit-
in dowels on them inside the holes with
a hammer.
g) Remove the nuts and the upper washers
from the screws (leave the lower washers
on them)
h) Place the U-prole bracket with the solar
panel on its nal position on the screws.
i) Place the washers then the nuts on the
screws, drive the nuts by hand until you can, then tighten them with
a wrench.
Fixing the ood light:
a) It is recommended to position the light on its nal place, then mark
the 2 locations of the holes. The holes located on the lower part of the
light’s U-prole are the xing points.
b) After marking the locations of the holes, remove the light, and drill
the holes.
c) Push 2 screws together with the hit-in dowels on them inside the holes
with a hammer.
d) Remove the nuts and the upper washers from the screws (leave the
lower washers on them)

g) The vertical angle of the ood light is adjustable. If you would like to
loosen or tighten the adjustment of the angle, please use an allen key
to tighten or loosen the 2 screws located at the connection points of
the U-prole bracket, and the light body. The allen key is not the part
of the package.
h) The solar panel is supplied with 3 m cable. Please make sure to set up
the distance between the ood light, and the solar panel correctly not
to exceed the cable length. The plug of the solar panel’s cable should
be correctly attachable to the light cable’s plug. Please make sure you
plug the 2 cables correctly together, then roll on the threaded plastic
cap on the connection point, and tighten it gently by hand (CARE! Do
not overtighten!).

For preserving the aesthetical outlook, and maintaining the maximum
functionality, and eciency of your light, cleaning is recommended from
time to time. Since the light is operated by solar energy, keeping the solar
panel clean & free of dust is key-essential to ensure its eciency, and
maximize discharging time. Please follow the instructions below when
cleaning your light:
1. Please always use a suitable, soft, and damp towel for cleaning the solar
panel
2. Apply the towel with higher water content for the rst time at each
cleaning procedure to remove the majority of dust preferably with one
movement.
3. After washing the towel in continuous water stream to remove the
accumulated dust, squeeze the water out of the towel, and remove the
remainder of dust with the towel gently from the surface of the solar
panel if necessary. Care to avoid scratching the surface of the solar
panel.
4. If you observe scaling, or other accumulated dirt on the surface of the
solar panel, please only use a chemical or natural enzymatic based
agent for cleaning which is recommended for solar panel cleaning by
its manufacturer.
5. Cleaning of the plastic and metal parts of the light body can be executed
easily, but attention is needed to avoid scratching of the surfaces.
6. Cleaning the dome which protects the LED group from external eects
also requires cautious approach for cleaning to avoid scratching. Please
apply chapter 1)-4) above for the dome as it is written in case of the
solar panel.
