CAUTION! EX-
PLOSION HAZ-
ARD!
Never throw
rechargeable batteries into
fire or water.
Expired or drained rechargea-
ble batteries may leak chemi-
cals which will damage the
product. Therefore remove the
rechargeable battery if the fairy
lights will not be used for ex-
tended periods.
WEAR PROTEC-
TIVE GLOVES!
Leaked or damaged
rechargeable batteries could
cause chemical burns on con-
tact with the skin; you should
therefore wear suitable protec-
tive gloves at all times if such
an event occurs.
Only use rechargeable batter-
ies of the correct size and and
the recommended type (see
section ”Technical data”).
Ensure correct polarity, indicated
in the battery compartment.
Functionality
The solar cell built into the product
converts sunlight into electricity and
stores it in a Ni-MH rechargeable
battery. The light switches on at dusk.
The built-in LED is an energy-saving
illuminant with a very long life. The
light duration depends on the amount
of sunlight, the angle at which light
hits the solar panel, and the temper-
ature (the battery capacity varies
by temperature). A vertical angle
of light at temperatures above the
freezing point is ideal. The recharge-
able battery will only achieve its
maximum capacity after several
charging and discharging cycles.
Initial use
Before first use, remove the
protective film from the solar
panel.
