6. Operating Modes
The Onforu 70W Flood Light offers two operating modes:
6.1. Dusk to Dawn Mode
In this mode, the built-in photocell sensor automatically detects ambient light levels. The light will turn on at night (10-20 Lux) and turn off during the daytime (30-60 Lux), providing hands-free operation and energy savings.
6.2. Switch-Controlled Mode
To operate the light using a standard wall switch, cover the photocell sensor with the provided black cap. This will bypass the dusk-to-dawn function, allowing you to manually turn the light on and off as needed.
7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your flood light.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the light heads and photocell sensor with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, dust, or debris that may obstruct the sensor or reduce light output. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Annually inspect the wiring and mounting for any signs of wear, damage, or loose connections. Ensure the light heads remain securely tightened in their adjusted positions.
- Bulb Replacement: This LED fixture uses integrated LEDs and does not require bulb replacement.
