HOW YOUR HOME SECURITY MOTION

ACTIVATED LIGHTING SYSTEM WORKS

The Home Security Motion Activated Lighting
System is designed to turn on automatically
at night when a person enters the detection
zone. The light will stay on as long as the
motion detector senses motion in the zone.
The light will turn off in approximately 90
seconds after the person leaves the detection
zone or stops moving.

During the day, the solar panel converts
sunlight into electricity and recharges the
battery in the main housing. At night, the light
turns on automatically when it detects motion
using the electricity stored during that day.

The number of activations per night are
dependent on your geographical location,
weather conditions and seasonal lighting
availability.

Note:

Solar security lights do not receive
as much direct sunlight in winter
months. Therefore, the number of
activations per night will be reduced
during winter.

BEFORE FIRST USE – After installing the
main housing and solar panel module,
leave the switch in the “OFF” position and
charge in full, direct sunlight for THREE
FULL DAYS. Then remove the switch label
and slide the switch to the “AUTO”
position. The light will turn on
automatically at night when it detects
motion.
