Maintenance

Replacing the battery
IMPORTANT: Dispose of the battery in accordance
with local, state, and federal regulations.
IMPORTANT: When storing any solar product for an
extended period of time, remove the batteries.
Storing any solar product without regular recharge or
removal of batteries could cause permanent damage
to the rechargeable batteries.
NOTE: Use one AA size, 1200mAh, 1.2V Nickel Metal
Hydride rechargeable battery. For best performance,
replace with a Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable
battery annually.
□
Hold the lamp housing (B), and rotate the top cap (A)
counterclockwise until it is loose. Then, remove the top
cap (A) from the lamp housing (B).
□
Remove the battery cover (G) and the old battery (E).
Replace with a new Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable
battery – The recommended replacement battery
capacity should be 1200~1500mAh.
□
Replace the battery cover (G). Place the top cap (A)
back on the lamp housing (B), and rotate the top cap
(A) clockwise until it locks in place.

Care and Cleaning

The solar panel should be cleaned periodically with a damp cloth to help maintain optimum performance.

Troubleshooting

Problem
The nightly run
time is shorter.
The solar light
does not turn on
at night.
Possible Cause
The battery is not fully charged.
The battery is reaching the end of its useful
life.
Your solar light is inserted with a battery
isolator tag in the battery compartment. This
isolator tag must be removed prior to use.
The solar light is installed close to other light
sources, which may keep the solar light from
turning on at night automatically.
Solution
Ensure the solar light is located in an area
where it can receive the maximum amount of
full, direct sunlight every day. Keeping the solar
panel clean is equally important to ensure the
maximum charging performance.
Replace the old battery with a Nickel Metal
Hydride rechargeable battery.
Prior to use, check that the battery isolator tag
has been removed from the unit and the unit is
allowed to charge a full sunny day.
Relocate the fixture or eliminate other light
sources.
