Introduction
The solar light with sensor continuously scans the detection area and switches the light‘ON’when it
detects movement.
This means that whenever movement is detected within the range of the sensor the light will be switched ‘ON’
automatically to illuminate pathways, steps, patios, porches, backyards or areas around the home. While there is
movement within the detection range the light will stay‘ON’.
The solar light with sensor is designed for outdoor use in normal, clean conditions.
BEFORE COMMENCING INSTALLATION
For the best performance we suggest you take into account the following:
Do not face sensor towards direct sunlight.
Bestperformance is achieved when the movement is across the detection area of the sensor.
The
solar light
recommended mounting height is 2 to 2.5 metres.
Do not install on surfaces which can move or vibrate.
The sensor range is approximately 7m by 90°. This may vary slightly depending on the mounting height and the
temperature.
Always ensure the LEDlight heads don’t touch the sensor. The heat generated by the heads may be harmful to the sensor
over a period of time.
Installation Instructions

Product Installation
NOTE: This product must be installed by a licensed electrician.
NOTE: For best performance install at a height between 2 and 2.5 metres.
1.
2. Remove the mounting plate‘A’ from light body‘B’by press the wall mount plate lock switch ‘C’.
3. Drill two holes in the wall using the mounting holes ‘D’ on the mounting plate ‘A’as a template.
Note: exercise caution to avoid drilling into existing electrical wiring.
Switch the light between "AUTO" and "OFF" according to marking on the switch ‘F’.

automatically
Tenical data of the PIR sensor is as below:
Detection angle: approx. 90°
Detection distance: Max. 7m
Duration time: 60s xed;
Lux control level: 10±10Lux
Motion Sensor Settings
Good sensitivity walking
across the detection area.
Poor sensitivity
walking towards or
away from the sensor.
WALK THROUGH TEST
• Turn the switch to ‘AUTO’ and wait approximately a minute for the control circuit to stabilise.
Do not stand within the sensing range of the sensor!
• Direct the sensor towards detection area by mounting the light to desire spot.
• Walk slowly across the detection area. The sensor will detect the infrared radiation of the human body and turn
the light ON.
• Test the coverage of the area by walking further away from the sensor until you get satisfactory result.
• Once you are happy with the direction, you could mount the light there following the installation step above.

Troubleshooting
NOTE: All Passive Infra-Red detectors are more sensitive in cold and dry weather than warm and humid weather.
