IMPORTANT
: This light fixture uses light emitting diodes (LEDs) to provide
light. LEDs do not have a filament to burn out like a traditional light bulb.
LEDs gradually emit less light over their lifetime, but will typically last 36,000
hours in a residential environment.
Periodically clean the fixture and diffuser using a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
and soft cloth. When cleaning the fixture, make sure the power is turned off.
Do not spray cleaner directly onto any part of the fixture or LEDs.
Care and Maintenance
Security Light Operation
The motion sensor on this fixture has a built in Dusk-to-Dawn sensor. The
Dusk-to-Dawn sensor disables the motion sensor during daylight hours. The
motion sensor will not activate during daylight hours regardless of motion detection.

The motion sensor must be tested before setting the
time and sensitivity levels. The
TEST
option is located
on the
TIMER
control knob on the underside of the
sensor head. To test the fixture, switch the wall switch
that controls power to the fixture to the ON position and
turn the rotary knob to the “TEST” area. [The lights will
come on for 40 seconds regardless of whether there is
motion or not, and regardless of whether it is day or night.] Leave the rotary knob in
the “TEST” area and test the sensitivity by crossing in the path of the sensor. The light
will come on only if it senses movement. Once movement stops, it will turn off in 5
seconds (
Fig. 1
). The test is now complete.

The control knob located on the opposite side is marked
SENSITIVITY
, which determines the degree of motion
detection. Rotating this knob clockwise raises the
sensitivity of the motion sensor for up to 60 ft. of distance.
Rotating the knob counterclockwise lowers the sensitivity
down to as close as 5 ft. It may be necessary to adjust the
“SENSITIVITY” knob several times until the proper setting
is achieved (
Fig. 2
). NOTE: The higher sensitivity level increases the likelihood of a false
activation being triggered. For maximum range performance, allow the fixture to operate
in any setting (with power) for at least 48 hours.
2
The 180 degree coverage of the motion sensor is
measured side to side (
Fig. 3
). Therefore, the sensor will
better detect motion across the field of view
(side-to-side), rather than motion coming straight at the
sensor (in-and-out). Adjust the motion sensor head so
that it detects motion moving across the coverage area.
The position of the sensor head should not exceed 45
degrees from horizontal (
Fig. 4
). Do not aim the motion
sensor at a body of water, bushes or plants that may move in the wind, pedestrian
traffic, moving cars, etc., as this will trigger the motion sensor.
NOTE
: If the sensor
arm becomes loose, it will not hold the sensor head at the proper angle. Readjust the
sensor head and tighten the joint screw on the sensor arm.

Once the fixture has been tested for proper operation
and sensitivity, rotate the rotary knob on the
TIMER
control to the “TIMER”
area. The “TIMER” position
allows the fixture to go into AUTO motion sensor mode.
Rotating the knob clockwise increases the duration of
light up to 5 minutes once motion is detected. Rotating
the knob counterclockwise decreases the duration of
light down to 10 seconds once motion is detected. It may be necessary to adjust the
“TIMER” knob several times until the desired length of time is determined (
Fig. 5
).
To control the security light from inside the home, activate manual “ON” mode by
toggling the wall light switch OFF and ON within 2 seconds. The security light will turn
on and stay on for approximately 8 hours, or until the dusk-to-dawn sensor detects light
in the morning. Once the dusk-to-dawn sensor detects light, the manual “ON” mode
will automatically go back to its original settings of the AUTO motion sensor mode.
