3. What's Included
Your CLAONER Solar Lights Outdoor package includes:
- 10 x Solar Motion Sensor Lights
- 10 x Screws
- 10 x Wall Plugs
- 10 x Double Sided Tapes
- 1 x Instruction Manual
4. Setup and Installation
Follow these steps for optimal setup and installation of your solar lights:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all items from the packaging and verify that all listed components are present.
- Remove Protective Film: Before installation, peel off the transparent protective film from the solar panel on top of each light. This film can interfere with the panel's ability to charge the battery if left on.
- Choose Installation Location: Select a location that receives direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily to ensure maximum charging efficiency. The lights are designed for outdoor use on walls, fences, decks, or other vertical surfaces.
- Mounting Options: There are three primary methods for mounting your CLAONER Solar Lights:
- Using Screws (Included): For a secure and permanent installation, use the provided screws and wall plugs. Mark the desired drilling spots, drill pilot holes, insert wall plugs, and then secure the light with screws.
- Using Double-Sided Tapes (Included): For smooth surfaces, peel off the backing from the 3M double-sided adhesive tape and firmly press the light onto the clean, dry surface. Ensure the surface is free of dust and debris for optimal adhesion.
- Using Rope (Not Included): The lights feature a design that allows them to be fastened with a rope for temporary or non-permanent installations.
- Initial Charge: Allow the solar lights to charge in direct sunlight for a full day (6-8 hours) before first use to ensure the battery is fully charged.

5. Operating Modes
The CLAONER Solar Lights offer three distinct lighting modes to suit various needs. Use the small black mode switch button located on the front of the light (below the motion sensor) to cycle through the modes. The default setting out of the box is OFF.
- Mode 1: Medium Long Light Mode
Press the button once to activate this mode. The light will remain at 30% brightness throughout the night without motion detection. This mode provides continuous ambient lighting.
- Mode 2: Dim Light Sensor Mode
Press the button a second time to activate this mode. The light will stay at 10% brightness (dim light) at night. When motion is detected, the light will brighten to 100% brightness. After 20 seconds of no motion, it will return to 10% brightness.
- Mode 3: Strong Light Sensor Mode
Press the button a third time to activate this mode. The light will remain OFF at night. When motion is detected, the light will turn on at 100% brightness. After 20 seconds of no motion, it will turn off completely.
To turn the light OFF, press the button a fourth time after Mode 3. The cycle will then repeat from Mode 1.

6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your CLAONER Solar Lights, consider the following maintenance tips:
- Clean Solar Panel: Regularly wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and charging efficiency.
- Clear Obstructions: Ensure that no trees, buildings, or other objects are blocking direct sunlight from reaching the solar panel, especially during peak charging hours.
- Check Mounting: Periodically inspect the mounting to ensure the lights are securely attached and have not become loose due to weather conditions or vibrations.
- Winter Care: While IP65 waterproof and weather-resistant, prolonged periods of heavy snow cover may reduce charging. Clear snow from the solar panel as needed.

7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your CLAONER Solar Lights, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on at night. | Insufficient charging; Protective film still on solar panel; Mode switch is OFF. | Ensure solar panel receives 6-8 hours of direct sunlight. Remove protective film from solar panel. Press the mode switch button to select a lighting mode (Mode 1, 2, or 3). |
| Light stays dim or turns off too quickly. | Battery not fully charged; Solar panel is dirty or obstructed. | Allow more charging time in direct sunlight. Clean the solar panel. Ensure no obstructions are casting shadows on the panel. |
| Motion sensor not detecting movement. | Sensor obstructed; Light installed too high; Incorrect mode selected. | Ensure the motion sensor is clear of obstructions. Consider installing the light at a lower height (e.g., 3-6 feet from the ground) for better detection of smaller movements. Verify Mode 2 or Mode 3 is selected. |
| Light flickers or is inconsistent. | Low battery charge; Nearby light sources interfering. | Allow the light to charge fully. Relocate the light away from other strong light sources (e.g., streetlights) that might prevent it from activating at night. |
