INSTALLATION
NOTE
When scheduling the installation, make sure that the outside temperature does not
drop below freezing on the day of installation or on the next three days after installa-
tion. On the first few days, the system will record the new environmental conditions,
such as hours of daylight. During this period, the battery may initially be discharged
completely. This in combination with very low temperatures can cause damage to the
battery.
STEP 1
MOUNTING THE POWER UNIT TO THE LAMP UNIT
Unpack the power unit carefully and check it for shipping damage. Remove the trans-
port safety mounting (4 pieces) from the bottom of the power unit using the 5mm
Allen wrench.

the power unit with the yellow plug on the lamp unit (pay attention to the white mar-

unit (pay attention to the white markings once again!).
