Installation Steps:
- **Select Lighting Mode:** Choose your desired lighting mode (see "Operating Modes" section) by pressing the switch on the unit.
- **Choose Location:** Select an outdoor location that receives ample direct sunlight throughout the day to ensure optimal charging.
- **Mount the Light:** Securely mount the light using the provided wall plugs and screws, or use 3M double-sided adhesive for a tool-free installation.
Operating Modes
The solar light features three distinct lighting modes, selectable via the power button:
- **Mode 1 (Auto-on at dark, no motion sensing):** The light automatically turns on at medium brightness when it gets dark and stays on continuously. This mode provides constant ambient lighting.
- **Mode 2 (Low brightness at dark, High brightness when motion detected):** The light stays at low brightness in dark conditions. When motion is detected, it switches to high brightness for a set duration, then returns to low brightness.
- **Mode 3 (Off in the dark, High brightness when motion detected):** The light remains off in dark conditions. When motion is detected, it turns on at high brightness for a set duration, then turns off completely.
Maintenance
- **Solar Panel Cleaning:** To ensure efficient sunlight collection and optimal charging, regularly clean the surface of the solar panel. Dust, dirt, and debris can reduce charging efficiency.
- **Do Not Disassemble:** To maintain the waterproof integrity and overall functionality of the product, do not attempt to disassemble the solar light.
Troubleshooting
- **Light Not Turning On:**
- Ensure the light is installed in a location that receives direct sunlight for several hours daily.
- The solar light will not light up during the daytime or in bright areas. It is designed to operate at night or in dark conditions.
- If there has been no good sunlight for several days, the built-in battery may be depleted. Allow 3 days of charging under sunny conditions for the light to regain power.
- **Reduced Brightness or Short Lighting Time:**
- The lighting duration is dependent on the power saved by the battery. Ensure the solar panel is clean and free from obstructions.
- Under extreme cold temperatures, or on cloudy, rainy, or snowy days, the battery may not fully charge, leading to reduced brightness or shorter operating times.
