OFF button. In case of a longer storage, please turn on the light once
every month, put it in a sunny place in the morning, and turn it o at
dusk. In this case the light can be stored again for another month. It
may decrease the life span of the battery if the light is stored for a longer
period with a totally discharged battery, moreover it can damage the
battery!
ATTENTION! The light sensor switches o the light even at night if it
receives high luminosity lighting from above! Do not place your light in
a position where other light sources can hinder its operation (e.g. do not
place the light below high luminosity street light)!
ATTENTION! Battery is built-in, non-replaceable!

PRODUCT INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
ATTENTION!
Time-controlled operation increases the life span of the battery. It is
recommended to use the time control functions, or to turn o the light
by the remote control if you do not need the lights to shine (e.g. at late
night or break of dawn).
If you keep your nger for 4 seconds on the ON signal, the light switches
to default mode (cold white light color, maximum power).
You can control 50 lights at the same time with the 2.4G remote control
in 25 m radius (considering no obstacles in the area, and sucient
charge in remote control’s batteries).
The batteries supplied for the remote control are recommended to be
changed for rechargeable batteries once they reach the end of their life
span. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION: THE STAND-BY MODE OF THE REMOTE
CONTROL, AS WELL AS THE REGULAR USE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL
CONSUMES A DECENT AMOUNT OF ENERGY. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO
REMOVE THE BATTERIES FROM THE REMOTE-CONTROL UNIT ONCE
YOU CUSTOMIZED, AND SET UP YOUR LIGHT CORRECTLY, STORE THEM
SEPARATELY, AND ONLY PUT THEM BACK IN THE REMOTE CONTROL
WHEN YOU NEED THE REMOTE CONTROL!
The light blinks 2 times when it receives any of the time-controlled
operation commands.
It is recommended to reduce the power of the light in case of constantly
cloudy, rainy, overcast, cold weather days, if longer operation is needed
during night-time.
If the light does not receive the commands of the remote-control unit,
please restart the light system. You can do it by clicking the main ON/
OFF button 2 times (turning OFF and ON the light) located at the top part
of the column inside, like it is described above in chapter “Installation of
the light ” (paragraph 5). If the light still does not react on the commands
of the remote control, please change the batteries in the remote control
since the cause could be discharged or faulted batteries.
To maximize the discharge time of your light, and preserve its good
aesthetical outlook, please follow the instructions given in “Cleaning
instructions” (please nd this chapter below). PLEASE PAY EXTRA
ATTENTION TO THE RIGHT CLEANING METHOD OF THE POLYCARBONATE
PARTS (DOME)!

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.
CARE! POLYCARBONATE DOMES ARE EXTREMELY HIT-RESISTANT BUT
THEY ARE NOT SCRATCH-RESISTANT, MOREOVER THEY ARE VERY
SENSITIVE FOR SCRATCHING. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO PARAGRAPH
2) IN THIS CHAPTER!
