WARNING
: Do not dispose of Li-Ion battery in the regular trash, municipal waste stream or by
fire as batteries may leak or explode. Do not open, short circuit, or mutilate batteries as injury
may occur. Preserve our environment by recycling Li-Ion batteries or disposing of them in
accordance with local, State and federal regulations. Do not mix old and new batteries.
Maintenance
Clean the solar panels regularly with a damp towel to guarantee optimum performance. Do not
use any type of solvent for cleaning and be careful not to put too much pressure on the solar
panels while cleaning.
Trouble Shooting
If your solar charged light does not come on at dusk despite observance of all the instructions,
please try the following steps:
1. Make sure that the solar lamp is not being affected by any other light source.
2. Ensure the solar lamp is not positioned in the shade during the day.
3. Make sure the switch in the lamp head is on Bright White or Warm white position.
4. Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
NOTE
: The performance of the solar lamp will vary with the time of year. It will deliver more light
when it has had a full day in the sun rather than a day in overcast weather.
WINTERTIME TIPS:
For optimal performance, be sure to remove any snow or debris
accumulation from solar panel(s). A solar panel free of debris will charge the batteries much
more efficiently.
WARNING
: Please keep out of reach of children.
