6. Operating Instructions
The Olafus 130W Motion Sensor Outdoor Light offers multiple operating modes and adjustable settings.
6.1 Adjusting Light Heads
The five light heads can be independently rotated to direct illumination precisely where needed, providing comprehensive coverage.
6.2 Sensor Settings
The motion sensor unit has three adjustable dials for customizing operation:
Image 6.1: The three adjustable dials on the motion sensor control mode, delay time, and light sensitivity.
- Mode Dial (Left): Selects the operating mode.
- D2D (Dusk to Dawn) Mode: The light automatically turns on at dusk and off at dawn.
- Motion Sensor Mode (L/M/H): The light activates when motion is detected. Sensitivity can be set to Low (L), Medium (M), or High (H).
- Setting Delay Time Dial (Middle): Adjusts how long the light stays on after motion is detected (in Motion Sensor Mode). Settings range from 10 seconds to 10 minutes (60-600 seconds).
- Light Sensitivity Dial (Right): Controls the ambient light level at which the sensor becomes active. Settings range from 80-2000 lux.
6.3 Operating Modes
- Motion Sensor Mode: When set to this mode, the light will automatically turn on for a set duration (10 seconds to 10 minutes) when motion is detected within its 180° detection angle and up to 72 ft range. The light will turn off after the set time if no further motion is detected.
- Dusk to Dawn Mode: In this mode, the light will automatically turn on when ambient light levels fall below the set sensitivity (dusk) and turn off when ambient light levels rise (dawn). Motion detection is not active in this mode.
- Test Mode: This mode activates the outdoor light for 5 seconds when motion is detected, both day and night. It is useful for verifying the sensor's functionality and coverage area after installation.

7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Olafus outdoor light.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the light heads and motion sensor lens with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Annually inspect the wiring and mounting hardware for any signs of wear, damage, or loosening. Tighten screws as necessary.
- Obstructions: Ensure no new obstructions (e.g., growing foliage) are blocking the motion sensor's field of view.

8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Olafus outdoor light, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on. | No power, incorrect wiring, sensor setting too high (for D2D), or faulty bulb. | Check circuit breaker. Verify wiring connections. Adjust light sensitivity dial. Contact support if issue persists. |
| Light stays on constantly. | Dusk to Dawn mode active, continuous motion detected, or sensor malfunction. | Ensure mode is set to Motion Sensor. Check for constant movement in sensor's range. Reduce delay time. |
| Light turns on too frequently or for no apparent reason. | Motion sensor sensitivity too high, environmental factors (wind, small animals), or sensor obstructed. | Reduce motion sensor sensitivity (L/M setting). Clear any obstructions from sensor's view. |
| Light does not detect motion. | Motion sensor sensitivity too low, sensor obstructed, or incorrect mounting height. | Increase motion sensor sensitivity (H setting). Clear obstructions. Verify installation height is within 6.5-13.1 feet. |
