CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your decora
ti
ve outdoor mo
ti
on detector lighting
fi
xture requires very li
tt
le
care and maintenance. Simply clean the glass and coated metal surfaces
with a non-abrasive cleaner. Do not use any cleaners with chemicals,
solvents or harsh abrasives. The mo
ti
on detec
ti
ng lens is coated with a
specially painted
fi
nish and requires special care when cleaning. Use only a
so
ft
dry cloth to dust or wipe the lens area.
Another area that will need special a
tt
en
ti
on is the photocell window
located right next to the TIME/TEST knob. The photocell detects light
through this small window. Keep this area clean to prevent dirt from
collec
ti
ng. Excessive accumula
ti
on of dirt or dust on the photocell window
may cause the lights to come on during the day.
BULB INSTALLATION
The light
fi
xture is designed to safely operate with a single medium 100 wa
tt
type A-19 incandescent lamp or 23W CFL lamp. Do not overlamp this
fi
xture.
Some models require the removal of a cover to access the bulb. To remove
the cover, remove the decora
ti
ve nuts that secure the cover in place.
Replace the decora
ti
ve nuts a
