where you want to install the lamp.
 Make sure this is clear of obstacles such as cables and electric lines.
 Secure lamp to the wall with screws provided.
 Carefully route the wire from the solar panel to the lamp and plug it into the
battery housing input.
 Adjust the motion sensor so that it faces the area where motion detection is
desired. You can move it up and down by adjusting the screw on the neck of
the motion detector.
Note: Lamp unit should be mounted within 6 to 10 ft from the ground to ensure motion detection is optimized.
2. Wallordeckmounting ofsolarpanel
 Secure bracket to solar panel with screw provided as shown below.
 Set bracket on surface and secure in place with larger screwsprovided.
 Adjust angle of solar panel to ensure it receives optimum sunlight.

OPERATION
1. Before the Solar Motion Light can operate to its full capacity, allow the unit to charge in sunlight for 3 days
with the solar panel wire connected to the light.. Charging should be done with the unit in the “OFF” position.
2. Located at the bottom of the Battery Housing there is am OFF/AUTO/ON switch:
 “AUTO” position, the light will turn on automatically when motion is detected.
 “ON” position, the light can be used as a standard light for constant illumination.
 “OFF” position, the light will remain off and will not detect any movement.
HOW TO USE CONTROL DIALS
The Solar Motion Light has 3 dials which control the light’s duration, sensitivity to light
and sensitivity to motion.
LUX (LIGHT LEVEL)
The LUX dial adjusts the sensitivity to darkness. If set to the maximum level, the
light will go on in daylight. If set to the minimum , the sensor will only trigger the
light to turn on at dusk or when it is dark out. This is the ideal position for general usage. Please note that ambient
light will affect the sensor.
TIME
The TIME dial sets the duration the light will stay on when triggered.
The duration is adjustable from 8 seconds to 2 minutes. Rotating the dial clockwise will increase the duration the
light will stay on.
SENS (SENSITIVITY)
The SENS dial adjusts the sensitivity of motion detection:
1. Minimum position –Low Range: large movement is
required to trigger the light to turn on.
2. Mid Position - Medium setting.
3. Maximum position - Maximum range: the smaller movements will trigger the light to turn on.

LOCATION OF SOLAR LIGHT
Solar powered lights require sunlight to recharge the
internal batteries. For best results, locate the Solar Panel
in a position where it will receive direct sunlight, and is
generally free from cover andshade.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the light does not illuminate when movement in front of the sensor is obvious, please observe the following:
 Ensure the solar panel is in a location where it will receive maximum sunlight during daytimehours.
 Clean solar cells with a damp towel, DO not apply excessive pressure and avoid the use of any
solvents or cleaning agents on the solar cells.
 Ensure the switch is set to “Auto”
 Check batteries are installed correctly.
 Allow the solar panel to charge the batteries in direct sunlight for 2 days with the switch in the
“OFF” position.
 Replace Batteries
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
1. Batteries are located in the battery housing located at the back of the lamp
2. Remove Screws from front of the battery housing to access batteries.
3. Replace batteries with rechargeable batteries of the same type and rating
4. Reassemble battery housing

MAINTENANCE
Perform a visual inspection once per season. Keep the solar panel free of dirt and debris by wiping with a damp cloth.
After periods of inclement weather, and during winter, it may be necessary to place the light in the OFF position and
allow the batteries to recharge. This is because the batteries may not be able to fully charge during the day during
times of limited or reduced sunlight.
