2. Safety Instructions

• Ensure the solar panel is installed in a location that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal charging.
• Do not submerge the solar panel or string lights in water, despite their waterproof rating. The IP65 rating protects against splashes and rain, not submersion.
• Keep the solar panel clean from dust, debris, and snow to maintain charging efficiency.
• Avoid placing the lights near open flames or excessive heat sources.
• Handle the string lights carefully to prevent damage to the bulbs or wiring.
• This product is for decorative lighting purposes only and should not be used as a primary light source.

• Cleaning the Solar Panel: Regularly wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and charging efficiency.

• Storage: If storing the lights for an extended period, ensure the solar panel is fully charged, then turn the lights off. Store in a cool, dry place.
