Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to set up your solar wind chime for optimal performance:

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the wind chime from its packaging.
2. Remove Protective Film: Locate the solar panel on top of the wind chime. Gently peel off any protective film covering the solar panel to ensure maximum solar energy absorption.

5. Hang the Chime: Use the provided 'S' hook to hang the wind chime securely from a tree branch, patio cover, or any suitable fixture.

Operating Instructions

Once properly set up and charged, your WANQDG Solar Wind Chime operates automatically:

• Daytime Operation: The solar panel converts sunlight into electrical energy, storing it in the internal battery. The LED lights will remain off during the day.
• Nighttime Operation: At dusk, a built-in light sensor will detect the decrease in ambient light and automatically turn on the LED owl lights. The lights will softly and randomly cycle through various colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, white).
• Duration: On a full charge, the lights can operate for 8-14 hours, depending on the amount of sunlight received during the day.
• Wind Chimes: The metal tubes will produce soothing melodies whenever there is sufficient wind movement.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your solar wind chime, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Clean Solar Panel: Regularly wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, leaves, or snow. A clean panel ensures efficient charging.
• Check for Obstructions: Periodically check that no new obstructions (e.g., growing tree branches) are blocking direct sunlight from reaching the solar panel.
• Water Resistance: The wind chime is designed with IP67 waterproof materials, making it resistant to rain and splashes. However, avoid submerging the unit in water.
• Storage: If storing the wind chime for an extended period, ensure it is fully charged, turn the switch to 'OFF', and store it in a dry place.

Troubleshooting

If your solar wind chime is not performing as expected, consider the following common issues and solutions:

• Lights Not Turning On at Night:
  • Ensure the 'ON/OFF' switch on the underside of the solar panel is in the 'ON' position.
  • Verify the solar panel receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. Relocate if necessary.
  • Clean the solar panel surface to remove any dirt or debris that might be hindering charging.
  • Check for strong ambient light sources nearby (e.g., streetlights, porch lights) that might prevent the light sensor from activating the chimes.
• Lights Are Dim or Only Last a Short Time:
  • The battery may not be fully charged. Ensure the solar panel receives adequate direct sunlight for a full day.
  • Clean the solar panel.
  • Battery performance can decrease over time. While not user-replaceable, ensuring optimal charging conditions can extend its life.
• No Chime Sound:
  • Ensure the wind chime is hung in a location where it can catch sufficient wind to move the chimes.
  • Check for any physical obstructions preventing the chimes from moving freely.
