CHARGING

Place unit in a sunny location, with the solar panel facing the sun to charge. Unit will not charge as quickly
on a cloudy day and not at all in complete darkness.

OPERATION

1. The unit will operate when the ON/OFF BUTTON is in the ON position, but charging is still possible.
2. When in the OFF position the unit will not flash and stored battery power will not be depleted.
3. Once the unit is charged it is operational. To activate the strobe, press the ON/OFF
start flashing when the ambient light is low enough.
4. The strobe will continue to flash as long as there is battery power and darkness. Once daylight
returns the flashing will stop and if kept in a sunny location, it will recharge.
5. You can test to make sure the ON/OFF BUTTON is either on or off by placing your hand over the solar
panel. If the light starts flashing it is in the ON position. If it does not flash, it is either in the OFF
position or battery power has been depleted.
