throughout the year, especially after winter

purchased from The Brinkmann Corporation
Customer Service Department by calling

• Other light sources: If your solar lights are located
too close to a street light, porch light or another
solar light, it may not turn on automatically at night.
The solar panel is reacting to the other light source.
Eliminate the other light source or relocate your
solar lights.
• Dirty solar panel: A dirty solar panel will not allow
the battery to fully charge. This will shorten the life
of the battery and cause the light to malfunction.
Clean regularly with a dampened cloth or paper
towel.
After correcting the problem, check the light operation
immediately after dark or in a dark room. If the light
will only operate for a short time, the battery needs
recharging.
