5.2 Installation Methods
The solar lights offer two installation options:
Method 1: Screws Fixation (Permanent Placement)
- Use the provided punch template to mark the distance between the two screw holes on your desired surface.
- Drill two holes on the wall using a drill bit.
- Insert the plastic anchors into the drilled holes.
- Insert the screws into the plastic anchors, leaving at least 1/4 inch of the screw head exposed.
- Hang the solar light onto the exposed screw heads and ensure it is securely installed.

Method 2: 3M Adhesive (Damage-Free Setup)
For a tool-free and damage-free setup, you can use strong 3M adhesive (included). This method is suitable for smooth surfaces like fences, walls, or steps. Simply peel and stick the light to the desired location.
Note: 3M adhesive is only suitable for smooth, clean, and dry surfaces.
5.3 Optimal Placement for Charging
The charging effectiveness of your solar light is directly related to the amount of direct sunlight it receives. For best performance:
- Place the solar light in an area that receives plenty of direct sunlight for more than 6 hours per day.
- Avoid placing the solar light in the shade of buildings, trees, or other obstructions.

6. Operation
6.1 First-Time Use
Before initial use, ensure the light is switched ON and charged in direct sunlight for 6-8 hours to fully activate the battery.
6.2 Automatic Operation
The solar light features a light control mode. It will automatically turn on when the ambient illumination is less than 20 LUX (i.e., in dark environments) and turn off during the day for charging.
6.3 Color Modes and Memory Function
The light offers multiple color modes, which can be selected via the product's button. The available modes are:
- RGB Cycle
- Warm White
- Red
- Green
- Blue
- Yellow
- Cyan
- Purple
- OFF
The product includes a memory function. Once you select a preferred mode, the light will automatically turn on in that mode the next time, without needing to reset it.

7. Maintenance
- Regularly clean the solar panel to ensure maximum charging efficiency. Dust and debris can reduce the panel's ability to absorb sunlight.
- Check for any physical damage to the light or its mounting periodically.
8. Troubleshooting
8.1 Reduced Brightness or No Lights On
- Insufficient Charging: Ensure the solar panel receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Relocate the light if necessary to a sunnier spot.
- Interference from Other Light Sources: If other strong light sources (e.g., streetlights, porch lights) are present near the solar light at night, they may interfere with its light control sensor, preventing it from turning on or causing reduced brightness. Ensure there are no interfering light sources.
- Dirty Solar Panel: Clean the solar panel regularly to remove dirt, dust, or debris that may hinder charging.
- Battery Depletion: If the light has been stored for a long time or used in consistently cloudy weather, the battery might be low. Turn the switch ON and charge it in direct sunlight for 1-2 days.

9. User Tips
- For a vibrant display, consider installing multiple lights along your fence or pathway, especially when using the RGB cycle mode.
- Experiment with different color modes to match your outdoor decor or special occasions.
- In colder climates, ensure the solar panel is free of snow or ice for optimal charging.
