3. Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to properly set up your Lindby Sirita LED Solar Lights:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all lights and ground spikes from the packaging.
- Assemble: Attach the ground spike securely to the base of each solar light. Ensure a firm connection.
- Select Location: Choose an outdoor location that receives direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily. Avoid shaded areas, as this will reduce charging efficiency.
- Initial Charge: Before first use, place the solar lights in direct sunlight for a full day (approximately 8-10 hours) to allow the internal battery to charge completely. Ensure the switch is in the "ON" position during this initial charge.
- Install: Gently push the assembled solar light into soft ground. Do not force the spike into hard soil, as this may damage the unit. If the ground is too hard, pre-dig a small hole.

4. Operating Instructions
The Lindby Sirita LED Solar Lights are designed for automatic operation.
- Automatic On/Off: The lights feature a built-in light sensor. They will automatically turn on at dusk and turn off at dawn, provided the switch is in the "ON" position.
- Mode Selection: The Sirita solar lights offer two lighting modes:
- High Mode: Provides brighter illumination for up to 18 hours on a full charge.
- Low Mode: Offers a softer light, extending illumination time up to 30 hours on a full charge.
- Charging: The solar panel on top of each light charges the internal battery during daylight hours. Ensure the solar panel is clean and unobstructed for optimal charging.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your solar lights.
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe the solar panel and light housing with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. A clean solar panel ensures maximum charging efficiency. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Obstruction Removal: Ensure no leaves, snow, or other objects cover the solar panel, as this will prevent charging.
- Battery Replacement: The internal battery has a limited lifespan. If the light duration significantly decreases, the battery may need replacement. Refer to the product's internal design for battery access and replacement instructions. Use only rechargeable batteries of the specified type and voltage.
- Winter Care: In areas with heavy snow or prolonged periods of low sunlight, consider storing the lights indoors during winter months to preserve battery life.
