Directions for use
SOL 80 ALU IP 44
Open the battery compartment cover, remove the batteries and replace with same type
batteries (see technical data). Observe the correct polarity when replacing the batteries.
Assemble the lamp in reverse order. Charge the new batteries before first use for at least
3-4 days via the solar module as instructed.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1.
DC power is generated as soon as light strikes the solar module. Only use the
supplied cables and do not shorten the cables.
2.
Only use the supplied solar module. The solar module is adjusted to lamp and batteries.
The use of a different solar module can result in personal injury or damages to the
lamp and will void your warranty.
3.
Install the cable safe and secure and without causing any danger (e.g. trip hazard).
Do not use the solar lamp with a defective or damaged cable.
CLEANING
Keep the motion detector free of dust and debris; clean it regularly with a damp cloth.
Do not use any chemicals or aggressive agents for cleaning the device. Ensure that the
solar module is free of dirt and debris at all times. A dirty solar cell cannot charge the
batteries properly. This can result in premature aging of the batteries and malfunctions of
the device.
STORAGE
Observe the following steps to avoid damages to the batteries when storing the lamp for a
longer period of time without direct sunlight:
1.
Switch the lamp off (switch in OFF position).
2.
Store the lamp with connected solar module in a place, where the solar module is sub-
jected at least indirect lighting, if possible. This prevents deep drain of the batteries.
3.
During a longer storing period of the lamps (e.g. during winter) of more than 4 months
ensure regular recharge of the batteries. Place the lamp with connected solar module
for several days (3-4) in direct sunlight or remove the batteries and regularly charge
with a suitable battery charger.
FAQ / TROUBLESHOOTING:
1.
Problem:
Lamp does not turn on if there is movement in the detection area.
Solution:
Ensure that:
- the lamp is switched on (switch in ON position);
- the brightness is not set too dark. Set the LUX control knob further towards (
);
- the motion detector is directed to detect movement. Ensure that the arrow under the
motion detector points towards the detection area;
- the solar module is directed for being stricken during the day by as much sunlight as
possible for charging the batteries with solar energy;
- the batteries are not exhausted. Charge exhausted batteries at least for 3-4 sunny
days (switch in OFF position).
2. Problem:
Lamp turns already on in bright daylight.
Solution:
Motion detector adjusted too sensitive. Check your settings. Change the LUX
control knob setting towards (
). The lamp should only be enabled during twilight and
at night.
