Operating Instructions

Motion Sensor Operation:

The flood light features a 180-degree motion activated sensor with a range of up to 40 feet. The integrated photocell ensures that the light only operates during nighttime hours for efficient energy usage.

Adjusting Settings:

The motion sensor sensitivity and duration settings are typically located on the bottom or side of the sensor unit. Use a small screwdriver to adjust these dials:

• Sensitivity (SENS): Adjusts the detection range of the motion sensor. Turn clockwise for a wider range, counter-clockwise for a shorter range.
• Time (TIME): Sets how long the light remains on after motion is detected. Turn clockwise for a longer duration, counter-clockwise for a shorter duration.
• Lux (LUX): Controls the ambient light level at which the sensor becomes active. Turn towards the sun icon for daylight operation (for testing), or towards the moon icon for night-only operation. For normal operation, set to the moon icon.

Manual Override Option:

This fixture includes a manual override feature, allowing the light to operate constantly for a 6-hour period. To activate the manual override, quickly turn the light switch OFF then ON within 2 seconds. The light will stay on for approximately 6 hours, then automatically revert to motion sensor mode. To reset to motion sensor mode before 6 hours, turn the light switch OFF then ON again.

Maintenance

The Defiant LED Flood Light requires minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure optimal performance and longevity:

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the fixture with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the finish or electrical components.
• Bulb Replacement: The integrated LED technology means there are no bulbs to replace. Do not attempt to open the lamp heads.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the fixture for any signs of damage, loose wiring, or wear. If any issues are found, disconnect power and consult a qualified electrician.
