1. LEDs 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.
2. NOT FOR EAVE MOUNTING ONTO PERFORATED EAVE MATERIAL. Doing so can allow water to seep into the fixture canopy.

Remove the mounting plate by turning counterclockwise until it comes loose.
Remove the screw on the battery compartment cover. Remove the battery compartment cover.
Attach the security light to the mounting plate by positioning the security light over the mounting plate at an angle. Engage the security light into the grooves of the
mounting base and secure by twisting clockwise until the security light is seated vertically.
Insert 3 new alkaline C cell batteries (not included) into the battery compartment and orient them with the “+” and “-” markings on the back of the battery compartment.
Re-attach the battery compartment cover by aligning the legs on the lower edge of the battery compartment cover onto the fixture body and close the cover until the
catch at the top engages. Re-attach the screw. When ready to use, turn the switch, located below the battery compartment to “ON”. There will be an approximate 15
second delay for the fixture to light up, even if there is motion. This will occur every time the fixture is turned “OFF” and back “ON” at the switch or the batteries are
changed. Do not mix old and new batteries. Cold weather may have a negative impact on battery life.
Locate the open holes for mounting at the middle of the mounting plate and drill a pilot hole in the centre. If mounting onto brick or masonry then use the 3/16in.
drill bit to make a hole and place the raw plugs (A) in the pilot holes and hammer them into place until flushed with the surface of the masonry. Place the washer (C)
over the mounting hole and drive the long screws (B) into the masonry anchor until it is snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. If mounting onto a wood surface then use the
1/16in. drill bit and use the wood screws (B) and washers (C) provided to secure the mounting plate.

Light Orientation
Motion Sensor Battery Replacement
Troubleshooting Guide
The light turns on when the motion sensor detects movement. Sensor detects
motion up to 6m. The 180° coverage of the motion sensor is measured side-to-side.
The sensor is more effective from side-to-side, rather than motion coming straight at
it. The fixed timer is 15 seconds meaning the lights will stay on for approximately 15
seconds after detecting movement (only during the hours of darkness).
Extreme hot or cold weather could affect the performance of the built-in sensors
that detect body heat. Certain winter clothing can shield a person’s body heat from
the sensor during extreme cold weather. During extreme hot weather, the sensor
may not be able to distinguish the difference between normal body temperatures
and the surrounding high temperatures. The sensor will begin working normally
once weather conditions return to normal.
The individual light heads can be adjusted up/down and left/right to aim the light
heads in the desired direction.
Low battery warning light (red glow inside the PIR) only stays on for 30 minutes.
Use only alkaline batteries for replacement.
Remove the mounting base by turning counterclockwise until it comes loose.
Then replace batteries as needed.
Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT: Periodically clean the fixture using a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and soft
cloth. Do not use solvents or cleaners containing abrasive agents. When cleaning the
fixture, make sure the power is turned off. Do not spray cleaner directly onto any part of
the fixture or LEDs.
Problem Cause Solution
Security light does not
come on
1. ON/OFF switch is not set correctly
2. Batteries are defective or depleted
3. Batteries are installed wrong
4. Battery compartment cover is loose
5. It is daylight
6. Movement is taking place outside of the motion
sensor detection area
1. Slide switch to ON position
2. Replace the batteries
3. Reinstall the batteries correctly
4. Check battery compartment cover to ensure it is closed and
secured with the screw
5. Light is operating as it was designed. Recheck at night or move
fixture to a darker area
6. Move fixture within the desired detection area
Light continuously
cycles ON and OFF
(strobe effect)
1. Light sensor is triggered by reflected light from the
security light itself
2. Heat is being reflected from other sources and
may be triggering sensor on and off
1. Change the position of the light heads, aiming light away from
the reflecting surfaces
2. Remove heat source from detection zone or move fixture to
new location
Light turns on during
daylight hours
1. Light may be installed in shadows/dark area 1. Light is operating as it was designed
Light comes on for no
apparent reason
1. Sensor may be triggered by a small animal or
passing car
2. Hot air (dryer vent, car exhaust etc) may be
triggering the sensor
1. Light is operating as it was designed
2. Remove heat source from detection zone or move fixture to a
new location
Light stays on
continuously
1. Motion sensor may be picking up a continuous
flow of warm air from an air vent, dryer vent or heat
reflecting off a surface
1. Remove heat source from detection zone or move fixture to a
new location
