Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to assemble and install your solar pathway lights:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all items from the packaging.
- Activate the Light: Gently pull out the solar panel from the top of the light unit. Locate the "OFF/ON" switch and slide it to the "ON" position.
- Assemble the Pole: Connect the extension stakes (pipes) to the light unit and the ground spike. You can adjust the height by using one or two extension stakes. The available heights are approximately 14.46 inches, 18.03 inches, and 24.6 inches.
- Select Installation Location: Choose a location outdoors where the solar panel can receive direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily. Avoid areas under trees, eaves, or other obstructions that may block sunlight.
- Prepare the Ground: Loosen the soil before inserting the ground spike to prevent damage to the light unit.
- Insert into Ground: Firmly insert the assembled light into the prepared ground.

Operation
The BITPOTT Solar Pathway Lights are designed for automatic operation:
- Automatic Charging: During the day, the integrated solar panel charges the internal battery. A full charge typically takes 4-8 hours of direct sunlight. Charging time may vary based on weather conditions and sunlight intensity.
- Automatic Illumination: The lights feature a built-in light sensor. They will automatically turn on at dusk and turn off at dawn.
- Long-Lasting Performance: After a full charge, the lights can provide illumination for up to 12-14 hours, ensuring consistent lighting throughout the night.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your solar pathway lights, consider the following maintenance tips:
- Clean Solar Panels: Regularly wipe the solar panels with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and efficient charging.
- Clear Obstructions: Ensure that no leaves, branches, or other objects are blocking the solar panel's exposure to direct sunlight.
- Weather Resistance: The lights are rated IP65 waterproof, making them resistant to rain, snow, frost, and sleet. However, avoid submerging them in water.
- Seasonal Adjustments: In winter or periods of reduced sunlight, the charging time may be longer, and illumination duration shorter. Ensure the lights are placed in the sunniest available spot during these times.
