Troubleshooting
If you are encountering problems with your Slate Solar Motion Light, its more than likely something you can resolve yourself. An Slate
Solar Motion Light that has its solar panel in a poor location and is required to activate many times per night will struggle to work well.
Please try the troubleshooting tips below before contacting your retailer.
1. Double check the installation location. Is it as south facing as possible and in an unshaded location?
2. Are there other sources of light tricking the Slate Solar Motion Light into thinking it’s still daylight and stopping the unit from
activating? Test this by covering the solar panel with a tea towel or similar - ensuring there is no light reaching the panel. If the light
activates then another source of light hitting the solar panel is tricking the light into thinking it’s still daylight. Remove the source of
light or install in a different location.
Maintenance
Clean the surface of the solar panel and light lens with a soft, slightly moistened cloth. Do not use corrosive cleansing agents or
chemical solutions since this may damage the surfaces and impair operation. Keep the solar panel free of dirt, debris and snow or the
battery in your Slate Solar Motion Light might not charge properly. This may also shorten battery life or cause malfunction.

Thank you for choosing the Solar Centre’s Slate Solar Motion Light. Please read these instructions carefully before using your light.
Always take care when installing your light, especially when mounting it in high places.
Installation
The Slate Solar Motion Light has a powerful solar panel that charges the internal high capacity battery during the day. At night the
charge in the internal battery powers the Light enabling it to illuminate when it detects motion. Before installing you'll need to
consider the best place for it to receive the most amount of sunlight. For the best performance install the light in a South facing
location that is not obstructed by buildings, fences, trees, sheds, bushes or the shadows that these create. Please note that a poor
installation location will drastically reduce the performance of your Slate Solar Motion Light.
The Slate Solar Motion Light should be installed onto a flat surface. Use the template overleaf to mark and drill the two screw holes.
Drill the marked holes, insert wall plugs and screw the Slate Solar Motion Light into position.
Please note the PIR motion sensor (the white “bubble” on the underside of the light unit) needs to be pointing to where you want any
motion detected to operate the light.
