Sygonix 2338746 User manual

c) Rechargeable battery
• Correct polarity must be observed while inserting the rechargeable battery.
• The rechargeable battery should be removed from the device if it is not used
for a long period of time to avoid damage through leaking. Leaking or damaged
rechargeable batteries might cause acid burns when in contact with skin, therefore
use suitable protective gloves to handle corrupted (rechargeable) batteries.
• Rechargeable batteries must be kept out of reach of children. Do not leave re-
chargeable batteries lying around, as there is risk, that children or pets swallow
them.
• Rechargeable batteries must not be dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into re.
Never recharge nonrechargeable batteries. There is a risk of explosion!

Assembly
1. Insert the blunt end of the ground spike (4) all the way into the protruding connector on the
bottom of the base (3).
2. Repeat the step to assemble the other two lights.
Location
• Insert the ground spike (4) into a level and suf-
ciently rm surface (e.g. soil). A stony subsurface
will cause damage to the ground spike.
Hold the ground spike while inserting. Do not hold
the lamp head (1). This helps prevent damage to
the lamp head.
Make sure the ground spike is inserted securely
and cannot tip over.
• To optimize charging, place the solar panel (2) in a
location exposed to maximum sunlight. Do not set
up the solar panel in the shade or under any cover.
• Do not install the product in the direct proximity of
other light sources such as yard or street lights, oth-
erwise the product will not switch on automatically
at nightfall.
• The product is suitable for use in unprotected outdoor areas. Do not submerge!
Solar charging
When using for the rst time or after prolonged periods of low sunlight, you should fully re-
charge the battery.
Operation
For rst time use, remove the battery insulation strip. See section “Operation -
a) First time use and light on”.
a) First time use and light on
This product comes with a battery installed in each light. For rst
time use, you must remove the battery insulation strip to activate
the power supply.
1. Gently turn the lamp head (1) anticlockwise to unlock, then
remove it from the base (3).
2. Find the battery insulation strip on the bottom of the lamp
head and simply it out of the battery compartment.
3. Reattach the lamp head to the base.
When detaching or reattaching the lamp head from the base, make sure no moisture
enters and the cable connection is not damaged.
• When the battery insulation sheet is removed, the LED light turns on automatically during
darkness.
• When the ambient light reaches a certain brightness level, the LED light will turn off.
If required, carry out a performance test in a dark room.

Explanation of symbols
The symbol with the exclamation mark in the triangle is used to indicate important
information in these operating instructions. Always read this information carefully.
This product is constructed according to protection class III.
The arrow symbol indicates special information and advice on operation.
Safety instructions
Read the operating instructions carefully and especially observe the safety
information. If you do not follow the safety instructions and information on
proper handling in this manual, we assume no liability for any resulting per-
sonal injury or damage to property. Such cases will invalidate the warranty/
guarantee.
a) General information
• The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. This may become dan-
gerous playing material for children.
• Protect the product from extreme temperatures, strong jolts, ammable gases,
steam and solvents.
• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and
protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed
if the product:
- is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height
can damage the product.
• Do not short circuit the battery terminals.
• Consult an expert when in doubt about the operation, safety or connection of the
product.
• Maintenance, modications and repairs must only be completed by a technician
or an authorised repair centre.
• If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating instructions,
contact our technical support service or other technical personnel.
b) LED light
• Attention, LED light:
- Do not look directly into the LED light!
- Do not look into the beam directly or with optical instruments!

b) Notes on battery use and charging
• The battery can be fully charged for eight hours in sunny weather, which can light the prod-
uct for approximately eight hours.
• Keep the product clean. Dust and dirt covering the solar panel reduces charging efciency.
• During extended periods without sufcient sunlight (especially in winter), the rechargeable
battery charges less energy during the day than the lights use at night. So it is possible
that the rechargeable battery’s charge state will only light the product for a brief time only.
• Cold temperatures adversely affect the battery life. To ensure long, error-free operation, we
recommend storing the product in a dry, warm location when not in use.
• You can remove the rechargeable battery before storing the product and charge it with a
suitable charger. Observe all relevant information provided in these operating instructions
regarding removing or replacing the rechargeable battery.
c) Remove/Insert rechargeable battery
Replace the rechargeable battery if the illumination time reduces signicantly de-
spite the battery being sufciently charged.
When replacing the rechargeable battery, make sure no moisture enters and the
cable connection is not damaged.
1. Remove the lamp head from the base (2). See section “Operation - a) First time use and
light on”.
2. Find the battery compartment on the bottom of the lamp head and remove the battery.
3. Replace the battery matching the polarity shown inside the compartment.
Only use a rechargeable battery of the same type and specication as indicated in
the section “Technical data”.
When detaching or reattaching the lamp head (1) from the base, make sure no
moisture enters and the cable connection is not damaged.
4. Reverse these steps to reassemble the light.
Troubleshooting
Problem Solution
The light does not
turn on automati-
cally.
• There is a nearby light source which causes interfer-
ence with the product. Make sure the product is placed
in darkness to activate the light.
• The battery power is not sufcient to light the product.
Charge the battery.
The light stays on
for short periods.
• Long periods of low sunlight (e.g. cloudy weather or in
winter) will cause the battery to recharge less during
the day. We recommend using a commercially avail-
able charger to charge the battery.
• The battery is old and cannot store sufcient charge.
Replace with a new one.
• See sections “Solar charging” and “Operation - b)
Notes on battery use and charging”.
Care and cleaning
• Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions as
they can cause damage to the housing and malfunctioning.
• Never point a water jet, e.g. of a high-pressure cleaning device, at the product.
• Besides occasional cleaning, the product is maintenance-free.
• Let the product cool down sufciently before cleaning.
• Use a clean, soft and dry cloth to clean the housing. For more stubborn dirt, slightly moisten
the cloth with lukewarm water.
