Charging The Lights:
• Put the solar umbrella in direct sunlight to charge the batteries for 8
hours before the first use.
• LED lights last for 6 to 7 hours on a single charge.
• If lights are not working, fully charge the solar panel and try again
INFORMATION: Please remove the plastic film on the solar panel. This protective
film is to prevent damage during shipping. Failure to remove the film will
result in the solar panel not functioning properly.
Please note that batteries can discharge if they are left unused or uncharged
for a long period of time. We recommend you charge your solar umbrella for
at least 8 hours in direct sunlight before the first use. Failure to charge the
batteries will result in premature dimming of the lights in your new solar
umbrella.
For everyday normal use, turn on the light switch at nighttime when you want
to use the solar light and turn off the light switch after every use.
MAKE SURE THE LIGHT SWITCH IS IN THE OFF POSITION IN THE DAYTIME FOR THE
SOLAR PANEL TO RECHARGE THE BATTERIES.
Battery Replacement:
We recommend that you change the batteries in your solar light umbrella
every year or when you feel the light output is diminished. Use only
three (2)
AA size Ni-MH 1200 mAh rechargeable batteries from any major retailer.
• Install only new batteries of the same type in your product.
• Failure to insert batteries in the correct polarity, as indicated in the battery
compartment, may shorten the life of the batteries or cause batteries to
leak.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix Alkaline, Nickel Cadmium or Lithium rechargeable batteries.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Batteries should be recycled or disposed of as per state, provincial and
local guidelines.
