Introduction
This manual provides instructions for the setup, operation, and maintenance of your Globo Solar 3-piece set of solar garden spotlights. These self-charging outdoor lamps feature a stone design, blending naturally into your garden while providing accent lighting.
Each unit is equipped with built-in LED lights and a rechargeable NiMH battery, operating independently without the need for external power cables. They are designed for outdoor use with an IP44 protection rating.
Setup
- Unpacking: Carefully remove all three solar spotlights from their packaging. Inspect each unit for any signs of damage.
- Initial Charge: Before first use, place the solar spotlights in a location where the solar panel can receive direct sunlight for at least 8-12 hours. This ensures the internal NiMH battery is fully charged.

- Placement: Choose a location in your garden, flower beds, or along paths where the spotlights can receive ample direct sunlight during the day. Ensure the solar panel is not obstructed by shade from trees, buildings, or other objects.
- Positioning: Place the stone-designed spotlights to accent specific areas or to illuminate pathways. The discreet stone look blends into the natural environment during the day.

Operating Instructions
- Automatic Operation: The Globo Solar spotlights are equipped with a twilight sensor. They will automatically turn on at dusk and turn off at dawn, provided the battery has received sufficient charge during the day.
- Light Duration: With a full day's charge (approximately 8 hours of direct sunlight), the spotlights can provide illumination for up to 8 hours. Performance may vary based on sunlight intensity and duration.
- No Manual Switch: These units do not feature a manual on/off switch or a motion sensor. Their operation is entirely automatic based on light conditions.
Maintenance
- Cleaning the Solar Panel: Regularly wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. A clean panel ensures optimal charging efficiency.
- Battery Replacement: Each spotlight contains one rechargeable 1.2V AA NiMH 600mAh battery. If the light duration significantly decreases over time, the battery may need replacement. Refer to the specifications for battery type.
Caution: Use only rechargeable NiMH batteries of the specified type and voltage. Do not use alkaline or other non-rechargeable batteries.
- Environmental Protection: The spotlights have an IP44 rating, meaning they are protected against solid objects larger than 1mm and against splashing water from any direction. While suitable for outdoor use, avoid submerging them in water.
