Assembly
• Assemble the lamp case
(2)
, the standpipe
(3)
, and the ground spike
(4)
as shown. Make sure each part
is securely connected.
Location
• Insert the ground spike
(4)
into a level and sufficiently firm surface (e.g. soil). A stony subsurface will
cause damage to the ground spike.
Hold the ground spike while inserting. Do not hold the solar
panel
(1)
. This helps prevent damage to the lamp and solar
panel.
Make sure the ground spike is inserted securely and cannot
tip over.
• To optimize charging, place the solar panel in a location ex-
posed to maximum sunlight. Do not set up the solar panel in
the shade or under any cover.
• Do not install the product in the direct proximity of other light
sources such as yard or street lights, otherwise the product
will not switch on automatically at nightfall.
• The product is suitable for use in unprotected outdoor areas.
Do not submerge!
Solar charging
When using for the first time or after prolonged periods of low sunlight, you should fully recharge the battery.
• The product must be switched on for the battery to charge.
• Switch the product off before it gets dark to prevent the light from switching on and draining the battery.
• Switch the product back on after sunrise the next day to resume charging.
Operation
a) Turn on/off
The product has an ON/OFF switch which is used to turn on or off the product.
1. Gently turn the solar panel
(1)
anticlockwise to unlock,
then remove it from the lamp case
(2)
2. Find the ON/OFF switch on the bottom of the lamp case.
Adjust the switch to the
ON
or
OFF
position to turn on or
off the product.
3. Reattach the solar panel to the lamp case.
When detaching or reattaching the solar panel
from the lamp case, make sure no moisture en-
ters and the cable connection is not damaged.
• When the product is turned on and the battery charged, the LED light turns on automatically during
darkness.
• When the ambient light reaches a certain brightness level, the LED light will turn off.
If required, carry out a performance test in a dark room.
b) Notes on battery use and charging
• The battery can be fully charged for eight hours in sunny weather, which can light the product for ap-
proximately eight hours.
•
Keep the solar panel clean. Dust and dirt covering the solar panel reduces charging efficiency.
•
During extended periods without sufficient sunlight for solar charging, it is possible that the recharge
-
able battery will completely discharge. Rechargeable batteries can get damaged if left with no charge
for some time. It is recommended to switch the power off so the battery does not completely discharge.
• Cold temperatures adversely affect the battery life. To ensure long, error-free operation, we recommend
switching the power off and storing the product in a dry, warm location when not in use. Switch the
product off for this purpose.
• You can remove the rechargeable battery before storing the product and charge it with a suitable charger.
Observe all relevant information provided in these operating instructions regarding removing or replacing
the rechargeable battery.
