Setup and Installation
Before installation, ensure the solar lights are fully charged. Cover the solar panel and press the ON/OFF button to turn them on. Place the lights in an area that receives 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal charging.
Installation Methods:
- Screw Installation (Long-term Use):
Use the provided screws and expansion pillar-hinges to securely mount the lights to a wall or fence. Drill holes, insert the pillar-hinges, and then screw the light into place. - Double-sided Tape Installation (Temporary/No-Drill):
For surfaces where drilling is not preferred, use the included double-sided tape to adhere the lights. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before application. - Rope/Wire Installation (No-Drill):
The lights feature mounting holes that can also be used with rope or wire to hang them on fences or other structures.

Operating Modes
The WELALO Solar Motion Sensor Lights offer three distinct lighting modes, which can be cycled through by pressing the switch button located on the front of the unit. Cover the solar panel with your hand to test the modes in daylight.
- Mode 1 (Always On): The light turns on at night and stays at medium brightness continuously. This mode provides constant ambient lighting.
- Mode 2 (Dim Brightness + Motion-Activated High Brightness): The light stays dim at night and brightens to full brightness when motion is detected. After approximately 20-30 seconds of no motion, it returns to dim brightness.
- Mode 3 (Motion-Activated High Brightness Only): The light remains off at night and turns on to full brightness only when motion is detected. After approximately 20-30 seconds of no motion, it turns off.

Maintenance
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your WELALO Solar Motion Sensor Lights, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Clean Solar Panel: Regularly wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. A clean panel ensures efficient sunlight absorption and charging.
- Clear Obstructions: Ensure the solar panel is not obstructed by leaves, snow, or other objects that could block direct sunlight.
- Battery Life: For optimal battery performance, allow the light to charge for 6-8 hours in direct sunlight before first use. If the light is not used for an extended period, it is recommended to fully charge it every 3-4 months to preserve battery health.
- Weather Resistance: The IP65 waterproof rating ensures durability against rain, snow, heat, and frost. No special weather-related maintenance is typically required beyond ensuring proper installation.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on at night. | Insufficient charging; solar panel covered; switch is off. | Ensure solar panel receives 6-8 hours of direct sunlight. Clean the solar panel. Press the switch button to activate. |
| Light stays dim or turns off too quickly. | Insufficient charge; incorrect mode selected. | Allow more charging time. Cycle through modes to select desired setting (Mode 1 for always on, Mode 2 for dim + bright). |
| Motion sensor not working. | Light is not in Mode 2 or Mode 3; sensor obstructed. | Ensure light is in Mode 2 or 3. Clear any obstructions from the PIR motion sensor lens. |
