Setup and Installation
Installation requires a compatible 12-24V low voltage landscape lighting transformer and low voltage cable (not included). Follow these steps for proper installation:
- Plan Layout: Determine the desired locations for each well light. Consider the area you wish to illuminate and the path for your low voltage cable.
- Install Low Voltage Transformer: Install your low voltage transformer (not included) according to its manufacturer's instructions. Ensure it is rated for the total wattage of your lights.
- Dig Trench for Cable: Dig a shallow trench (typically 6-12 inches deep) along your planned path for the low voltage cable.
- Lay Cable and Position Lights: Lay the low voltage cable in the trench. Position each well light at its intended location, ensuring the light fixture is flush with the ground or slightly recessed.
- Connect Lights: Use the included SUNVIE screw-tight wire connectors to connect each well light to the main low voltage cable. Ensure a tight and secure connection to prevent moisture intrusion.
- Bury Cable: Once all connections are made and tested, carefully bury the low voltage cable in the trench.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your SUNVIE landscape lights.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the light lenses with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, debris, or mineral deposits that may obstruct light output. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

- Wiring Check: Examine the low voltage cable for any cuts, abrasions, or damage. Repair or replace damaged sections immediately to prevent electrical issues.
- Drainage: Ensure that the area around the well lights has proper drainage to prevent standing water, which could affect performance over time.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your SUNVIE landscape lights, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Lights do not turn on. | No power to transformer, loose wire connections, faulty light. | Check if the low voltage transformer is plugged in and receiving power. Verify all wire connections are secure. Test individual lights if possible. |
| Lights flicker or are dim. | Insufficient power, loose connections, damaged cable, transformer overload. | Ensure the transformer is adequately sized for the total wattage. Check all wire connections. Inspect the low voltage cable for damage. |
| Remote control not working. | Dead battery, out of range, signal interference. | Replace the remote control battery. Ensure you are within the 50ft operating range. Remove any obstructions between the remote and the lights. |
| Colors are inconsistent or stuck. | Remote synchronization issue, internal light fault. | Try resetting the remote control (refer to remote instructions if available). If the issue persists for a single light, it may indicate a fault with that unit. |
