5. Installation Guide
Follow these steps for proper installation of your solar street light. Ensure the chosen location receives ample direct sunlight throughout the day for optimal charging.
- Choose Location: Select a mounting spot that receives maximum direct sunlight and where the light's illumination is desired.
- Prepare for Mounting: Hold the mounting bracket against the wall at the desired height and mark the positions for the two screw holes.
- Drill Holes: Use an appropriate drill bit to drill two holes at the marked positions.
- Insert Expansion Plugs: Gently tap the expansion plugs into the drilled holes until they are flush with the wall surface.
- Mount the Bracket: Align the mounting bracket with the holes. Insert the first screw and partially tighten it.
- Secure the Bracket: Insert the second screw and then fully tighten both screws to firmly secure the bracket to the wall.
- Attach Light Unit: Slide the solar light unit onto the mounted bracket. Ensure it clicks securely into place.
- Remote Control Preparation: Before first use, peel off any protective film from the remote control's battery compartment.

6. Operating Instructions
Your Leclstar solar light is equipped with a PIR motion sensor and multiple lighting modes, controlled via the included remote.
6.1 Initial Activation
Ensure the light has been charged under direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours before first use. The light will automatically turn on at dusk and turn off at dawn, based on the selected mode.
6.2 Lighting Modes (Remote Control)
Use the remote control to switch between the three available lighting modes:
- Mode 1 (Motion Sensor Only): The light remains off in darkness. When motion is detected, it turns on at full brightness and turns off approximately 30 seconds after motion ceases.
- Mode 2 (Dim Light + Motion Sensor): The light stays on at a dim brightness in darkness. When motion is detected, it brightens to full intensity and returns to dim light approximately 30 seconds after motion ceases.
- Mode 3 (Always On): The light automatically turns on at a constant brightness (approximately 70% illumination) in darkness and stays on until dawn or battery depletion.
Figure 4: Visual representation of the three operating modes: Motion Sensor Off (Mode 1), Dim Light with Motion Sensor (Mode 2), and Always On (Mode 3).
6.3 PIR Motion Sensing System
The integrated PIR motion sensor detects moving objects within a 10-20 feet range and a 120-degree angle. When no motion is detected, the light will enter an energy-saving state (off or dim, depending on the selected mode).
Figure 5: How the PIR motion sensing system works: detects moving objects and automatically lights up.
6.4 Solar Charging
The solar panel requires 6-8 hours of direct sunlight to fully charge the internal lithium battery, providing over 6 hours of illumination at night.

7. Care and Maintenance
- Clean Solar Panel: Regularly wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris. A clean panel ensures efficient charging.
- Check Mounting: Periodically inspect the mounting screws and bracket to ensure the light remains securely attached.
- Battery Care: The integrated lithium battery is designed for long life. Avoid prolonged storage in a completely discharged state.
- Environmental Factors: While IP65 rated, extreme weather conditions (e.g., heavy snow accumulation on the panel) may temporarily affect performance. Clear any obstructions from the solar panel.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on at night. | Insufficient solar charge. | Ensure the solar panel is in direct sunlight for 6-8 hours daily. Clean the solar panel. |
| Light duration is shorter than expected. | Inadequate charging or low battery. | Relocate the light to a sunnier spot. Ensure the panel is clean. Allow several sunny days for full charge. |
| Motion sensor is not working or is too sensitive/insensitive. | Obstruction, incorrect mode, or environmental factors. | Ensure no obstructions block the sensor. Check the selected lighting mode with the remote. Avoid placing near heat sources or reflective surfaces. |
| Remote control is not responding. | Protective film still on battery, dead battery, or obstruction. | Remove any protective film from the remote's battery. Replace the remote battery if necessary. Ensure direct line of sight to the light's receiver. |
9. User Tips
- For best performance, install the solar light in an area that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct, unobstructed sunlight per day.
- Consider the light's placement carefully to maximize motion detection coverage for security purposes.
- In winter or cloudy conditions, solar charging efficiency may decrease, leading to shorter illumination times.
- Experiment with the different lighting modes to find the one that best suits your needs for energy saving and illumination.
