PARTS LIST
NOTED:
1. AT AN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE OF 77 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT, RH 30%-80%,THE DETECTION DISTANCE
IS AT MAX. (UP TO 49FT.). AS THE TEMPERATURE INCREASES OR DECREASES, THE DETECTION
DISTANCE WILL BE AFFECTED.
2. TO REDUCE POSSIBLE NUISANCES, DO NOT MOUNT THE FIXTURE NEAR A HEAT SOURCE LIKE AN AIR
CONDITIONER, VENT OR FURNACE EXHAUST, OR IN A DIRECTION FACING ANY REFLECTIVE OBJECT OR
OTHER NEARBY LIGHT SOURCE.
3. NO ANY REFLECTIVE OBJECT CAN BE ALLOWED WITHIN 1.5M RADIUS OF THE SENSOR HEAD,
OTHERWISE, IT WILL CAUSE FLASHING LIGHTS.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate or install the product.
PRODUCT MUST BE INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN!
WARNING
Shut off power at the circuit breaker or fuse panel before removing the old fixture or installing the new one.
LED electronics can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD) shock. Before installation, discharge yourself by
touching a grounded bare metal surface to remove this hazard.
To avoid damage, do not remove the clear lens over the LED module.
CAUTION
DO NOT USE THIS FIXTURE WITH A DIMMING CIRCUIT.
If you currently have dimmer controls, you will need to remove them and replace them with regular electrical switches.
If you have a three-way dimmer, you will have to replace it with a regular three-way switch. If you are unfamiliar with
electrical installations, it is recommended you have a qualified electrician do your installation.

Turn OFF power to work area at main circuit breaker or fuse box.
CAUTION: Do not rely on wall switch to turn off power
Attach crossbar (E) to junction box (not included) with two machine
screws (B).
Ensure that the screw thread on the center hole is pointing away
from the surface.
Remove the protective paper barrier from the adhesive face of the
EVA gasket (F). and adhere the gasket to the crossbar and outer
edge of the round surface junction box.
Ensure that the long machine screw on the crossbar is threading the
hole of EVA gasket.
Wiring the light and junction box through the EVA gasket.
a. Connect the white wire to the white wire by twisting Wire Nut (D).
b. Connect the black wire to the black wire by twisting Wire Nut (D).
c. Connect the green/yellow wire of light to the ground wire from
junction box by using ground screw (A, painted green) onto the
crossbar.
Make sure wire connections are secure.
Carefully place wires into junction box.
Position wall plate over the crossbar (E).
Mounting the light onto the crossbar and secure with the NUTS (C)
DO NOT over tighten.
For wet location, make sure fill full the gap of EVA gasket and
mounting surface with sealing compound or silicon glue.

IMPORTANT:
After mounting the LED sensor light, apply silicone sealant
completely around the perimeter of the cover plate where the back
of the cover plate meets the mounting surface. Silicone sealant
prevents water from seeping into the junction box.
CAUTION:
Make sure motion detector head is not UPSIDE DOWN! Rotate the
motion sensor so that controls face toward to
the detection areas.
ADJUSTING THE SENSOR HEAD:
Aim sensor head toward desired detection area and make sure
sensor head is positioned with controls facing toward the ground.
You can adjust the sensor head up and down, left to right for
desired coverage area.

Installation is now complete. Turn on power at circuit breaker and flip wall switch to ON position. Wall switch must
remain in the ON position for the motion detector to work properly (include daytime).
SENSOR ANGLES 180°
The sensor will be more sensitive to motion across than motion towards it directly.

TROUBLES SHOOTING
PROBLEM
PROBLEM CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION
Light does not come
on at night when
motion is detected
No power is being delivered to
the light.
Another light source is causing
the security light to think it is
daylight
Wiring inside electrical box came
loose.
Check that circuit breaker and /or
wall switch power is on.
Turn off surrounding lights and /or
re-aim the sensor head.
After turning power off to the light,
reconnect any loose wiring.
Sensor is in a shaded area and is
fooled into thinking it is nighttime.
Shine a flashlight onto the light
sensor.
Relocate security light to where
allows enough light enter the sensor
during daytime.
There is lighting, arc welding,
mobile sources or other such
unstable light
Avoid to irradiate by such light

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Any cleaning or maintenance of the light should be carried out with the source of power turned off. The light should be
cleaned with a damp cloth. Never use any abrasive cleaning products on the lamp heads or motion sensor lens.
Never add paint to the light. Do not clean with a high pressure spray or hose pipe. Periodically, check the silicone is still
in place and the light is secure on the wall mount.

USING THE MOTION LIGHT
The motion light has many time and detection distance
settings. Please take the time to read through the
options below to decide how best to utilize the light for
home security purposes.
1) TIME: allows the choice of timed activation.
TEST: this selection allows the light to be activated with
motion for up to five seconds regardless of ambient light.
1MIN: the light activates for one minute at night
5MIN: the light activates for five minutes at night
10MIN: the light activates for ten minutes at night
2) SENS (sensitivity): allows you to decide on the distance
of detection.
H- is high sensitivity. This sets the maximum distance.
The light will detect motion up to feet.
M- is medium sensitivity. The light will detect motion up to feet.
L - is the lowest distance. The light will detect motion up to 2 feet.
NOTE: At an ambient temperature of 77 degrees Fahrenheit , the
detection distance is at max..As the temperature increases or decreases, the detection distance will be affected.
3) AUTO: this operates the light as a motion detector at night. When motion is detected the light will activate at full
power. If this is selected the TIME and SENS selections become important.
3H: at dusk the light will turn on at low brightness as an accent light. When motion is detected the light illuminates
at full brightness. The mode will operate like this for 3 hours. After 3 hours the light becomes just a motion light and
the accent light feature turns off.
6H: at dusk the light will turn on at low brightness as an accent light. When motion is detected the light illuminates
at full brightness. The mode will operate like this for 6 hours. After 6 hours the light becomes just a motion light and
the accent light feature turns off.
DUSK TO DAWN: at dusk the light will turn on at low brightness as an accent light. When motion is detected the light
illuminates at full brightness. The mode will operate like this until dawn or as ambientt light increases.
