Indications
How the solar light works
During the day, the solar panel converts solar power into the rechargeable battery. At night,
the light turns on automatically by the stored energy. How long the light lasts depends on
its location, weather conditions and seasonal lighting availability.
Choosing the right location
An outdoor location with direct sunshine and where the solar panel of your light can receive
at least 6 hours of sunshine each day is an ideal location for solar light. Shady locations will
influence the batteries charge and may shorten the working time of the light at night time.
The solar light should not be placed near lighting such as street light, which may cause the
light to turn off, as there is a sensor inside to feel brightness and control the light working.
The solar light is ideal for night time lighting of the garden, lawn, patio, walks or wherever
needed. You can also charge the lights outdoors then use as indoor illumination.
Precautions
Please note that the light is designed to work when ambience turns to dark. If there are
strong light sources nearby then the lamp might be very dim or not work at all. Although
the manufacturer has charged the battery, the electric levels will have dropped when you
receive it. Please charge it for a full day to optimise performance.
The surface of the solar light must be kept clean, if not, this will influence the efficiency of
charging.
How to use the Solar light
Open the cover, push the switch to the ‘ON’ position, replace the cover and position the light
in a sunny location.
If the light does not turn on automatically after a 6 hours charge please check the following:
• Make sure the battery is making correct contact with the terminals.
• Make sure the lamp is placed in a sunny location and that the solar panels are facing the
sun, the battery may be not fully charged when purchased.
Replacing Battery
If the light stops working after it has been used for a long time (approx. 12 months), the
battery may be beyond its lifespan, please open the cover to replace a new rechargeable
battery.
