to the sensor or pointed at nearby
objects that cause heat to trigger the
sensor.
(Reposition the lamp away
from the sensor or nearby objects).

source like an air vent, dryer vent, or
brightly-painted heat-reflective surface.
(Reposition sensor. Reduce Range).

3. Light Control is in the Test mode and
warming up.
(Flashing is normal un-
