Operating Instructions
The Derynome Solar Outdoor Light operates automatically once properly installed and charged.
Automatic Dusk-to-Dawn Operation:
- During the day, the integrated solar panels will absorb sunlight and convert it into electrical energy, which is stored in the internal high-capacity battery.
- At dusk, the built-in light sensor will detect the decrease in ambient light and automatically turn on the LED light.
- The light will remain illuminated throughout the night, typically for 8-10 hours on a full charge.
- At dawn, as ambient light increases, the sensor will automatically turn off the light and resume charging.
Ensure the solar panels are clean and free from debris to maximize charging efficiency. Avoid placing the light near other strong light sources (like streetlights) at night, as this may interfere with the automatic dusk-to-dawn sensor and prevent the light from turning on.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Derynome Solar Outdoor Light.
- Cleaning Solar Panels: Periodically wipe the solar panels with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, leaves, or snow. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and charging efficiency.
- Weather Protection: While the light has an IP45 waterproof rating and is heat-resistant, it is recommended to move the light to a safe, sheltered location during strong winds or extreme weather conditions to prevent damage.
- Battery Life: The included batteries are designed for long-term use. If the light's performance significantly diminishes over time, consider replacing the internal rechargeable batteries. Refer to the product's internal battery specifications for compatible replacements.
- Structural Integrity: Periodically check all connections and screws to ensure they remain tight and secure.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on at night. | Insufficient sunlight exposure during the day. | Relocate the light to an area that receives 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. |
| Light does not turn on at night. | Solar panel is dirty or obstructed. | Clean the solar panel surface with a soft, damp cloth. Remove any debris. |
| Light does not turn on at night. | Light sensor is activated by another light source. | Ensure the light is not placed near streetlights, porch lights, or other strong light sources that might trick the sensor into thinking it's daytime. |
