Setup and Installation

Important: Before starting installation, ensure the power to the circuit is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box.

1. Prepare Wiring: Carefully pull the electrical wires from the outlet box.
2. Attach Mounting Plate: Secure the mounting plate (included) to the outlet box using the provided screws. Ensure it is firmly attached.
3. Make Electrical Connections:
   • Connect the fixture's black wire to the house's black (hot) wire using a wire nut.
   • Connect the fixture's white wire to the house's white (neutral) wire using a wire nut.
   • Connect the fixture's ground wire to the house's ground wire (bare copper or green) using a wire nut. If no house ground wire exists, connect to the green ground screw on the mounting plate.

   Ensure all wire nuts are securely tightened and no bare wire is exposed.

4. Mount the Fixture: Carefully push the connected wires back into the outlet box. Align the fixture with the mounting plate and secure it using the decorative nuts or screws provided.
5. Install Bulb: Screw the included Edison-style bulb into the socket. Do not overtighten.
6. Restore Power: Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker or fuse box.

Operating Instructions

This outdoor wall lantern features a built-in dusk to dawn sensor for automatic operation.

• Automatic Operation: Once installed and power is supplied, the integrated dusk to dawn sensor will automatically turn the light on when ambient light levels fall (at dusk) and turn it off when light levels rise (at dawn).
• Manual Override (if applicable): This model primarily operates automatically. Ensure the wall switch controlling the fixture remains in the "ON" position for the dusk to dawn sensor to function correctly.
• Sensor Placement: Ensure the sensor is not obstructed by eaves, trees, or other objects that might block natural light, as this could affect its performance. Avoid placing the fixture where direct artificial light (e.g., from another porch light or street light) might shine directly onto the sensor, as this could prevent it from turning on at night.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: To clean the fixture, ensure power is off. Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the finish or acrylic panels.
• Bulb Replacement:
  1. Turn off power to the fixture at the circuit breaker.
  2. Allow the bulb to cool completely if it has been on.
  3. Carefully unscrew the old bulb.
  4. Screw in a new E26 base bulb, not exceeding 60 watts.
  5. Restore power.
• Periodic Inspection: Periodically check all electrical connections and mounting hardware for tightness.
