4. Safety Instructions

  • Do not disassemble, repair, or modify the product. This may cause damage, electric shock, or fire.
  • Keep the product away from water and high humidity environments to prevent damage to electronic components.
  • Avoid exposing the product to direct sunlight or high temperatures for extended periods.

5. Setup and Installation

The OUILA LED Cabinet Light offers two primary installation methods:

Method 1: Magnetic Adsorption (for metallic surfaces)

  1. Ensure the metallic surface is clean and dry.
  2. Simply place the back of the LED light directly onto the metallic surface. The built-in magnets will securely hold it in place.

Method 2: Adhesive Tape (for non-metallic surfaces)

  1. Clean and dry the desired installation surface thoroughly.
  2. Peel off the protective film from one side of the provided double-sided adhesive tape.
  3. Attach the adhesive tape to the metal plates (if using on non-metallic surfaces) or directly to the back of the light if the surface is suitable.
  4. Peel off the protective film from the other side of the adhesive tape.
  5. Press the light firmly onto the desired surface for a few seconds to ensure a strong bond.

The light can be easily removed from its mounted position for charging or use as a portable light source.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Charging the Light

Before first use, fully charge the light. Connect the provided USB Type-C cable to the charging port on the light and the other end to a 5V-1A USB power source (e.g., USB charger, power bank, computer USB port).

  • Charging Indicator: A red light indicates charging; a green light indicates a full charge.
  • Charging Time: Approximately 3-4 hours for a full charge.
  • Battery Life: A full charge provides 4 to 80 hours of use, depending on the selected mode and brightness level.

6.2 Operating Modes

The light features a control button to cycle through three modes:

  1. Always ON Mode: Press the button once. The light will remain continuously on, functioning as a standard light.
  2. Night Sensing Mode (Motion Sensor): Press the button a second time. The light will only activate when motion is detected in sufficiently dark conditions (ambient light below a certain threshold). It will turn off automatically after approximately 20 seconds if no further motion is detected, conserving energy.
  3. Always OFF Mode: Press the button a third time. The light will remain off.
Three panels illustrating the light's modes: Night sensing mode (auto on in dark with motion), Always ON mode (light always on), and OFF mode (light off).

6.3 Brightness Adjustment (Stepless Dimming)

When the light is on (in either Always ON or Night Sensing Mode), press and hold the control button to adjust the brightness. The brightness will cycle smoothly between 10% and 100%. Release the button when the desired brightness level is reached.
