READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SOLAR LIGHT.

SAVE THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

Step 1

Attach the ground stake to a
pointed connector. Push
approximately 3" of the ground
stake into the ground. 

NOTE:

Ground can be softened by
soaking area with water first.

Step 2

Insert light head into ground
stake. The photocell light sensor
should point away from other
nighttime light sources. 

Step 3

For optimum performance, it is
best to charge the solar light for

FULL, SUNNY DAY

. The light

will turn on automatically at
night. The Ni-Cd rechargeable
battery provides increased
brightness and stays on longer
as it cycles over time (days and
nights of charging and
discharging). The more direct
sunlight that the light receives
during the day, the brighter and
longer the light will stay on at
night.
