Solar LED outdoor lamp SOL 14
SELECTING THE MOUNTING LOCATION FOR YOUR SOLAR MODULE AND LAMP
This solar lamp is shipped with a separate solar module. The solar module must be placed
in a location where it will receive at least 4-6 hours per day of direct sunlight, in order to
assure optimal function and a longer operational lifetime. To the greatest extent possible,
the solar module should be aimed to the southern sky in order to maximize exposure to
direct sunlight. If the solar module is placed in a shady location, the battery cannot be
completely charged. This reduces the number of hours that the light can burn at night.
When deciding where to install your light, remember that the motion detector which
activates this light has a monitoring area of 180º (horizontal) at a maximum distance of
10 metres.
INSTALLATION OF SOLAR MODULE AND LIGHT
Carefully remove all parts from their protective packaging. Connect the solar module with
the lamp by connecting the solar module with the cord attached to the light.
Turn the cable a little while pressing it together in order to get a tight connection.
Both the lamp and the solar module can be attached vertically or horizontally on a solid,
stable surface. Ideally, sunlight should hit the solar module at a vertical angle as much as
possible. In central Europe, an angle of inclination approximately 30° to 40°is recom-
mended. You can adjust the angle of the solar module, by using another latching position
to adjust the solar module.
PRIOR TO FIRST USE OF YOUR SOLAR LIGHT
1. Make sure that the switch on the lamp is set to OFF.
In this position the solar cell charges the battery without activating the light.
2. Leave the switch in this position for at least 3-4 sunny days to make sure that the
battery is fully charged before the final set-up and later normal use. This insures that
your solar light’s battery is completely charged before setting up the motion detector
and beginning normal operation. Alternately, you can charge the battery with a
standard battery charger.
