Setup & Installation
For optimal performance, install the solar light in a location that receives direct sunlight for 6-8 hours daily. Avoid areas under eaves, trees, or other obstructions that may block sunlight.
- Choose a Location: Select a wall or pole where the solar panel can receive maximum direct sunlight throughout the day.
- Mark Drill Points: Hold the light in the desired position and mark the drilling points for the mounting screws.
- Drill Holes: Use an appropriate drill bit to create holes at the marked points. Insert the provided plastic anchors (if applicable) into the holes.
- Mount the Light: Align the light with the drilled holes and secure it using the provided nails/screws. Ensure it is firmly attached. The light fixture can be rotated up to 60 degrees for optimal positioning.
- Initial Charge: Allow the solar light to charge for at least 6-8 hours in direct sunlight before its first use.

Operating Instructions
The solar light features a built-in light sensor and motion sensor, operating automatically from dusk till dawn. It also includes a remote control for mode selection.
Charging
The solar panel absorbs sunlight during the day to charge the internal lithium battery. Ensure the solar panel is clean and unobstructed for efficient charging. A full charge typically takes 6-8 hours of direct sunlight and provides 8-10 hours of illumination.

Lighting Modes
The light offers three distinct operating modes, selectable via the remote control:
-
Mode 1: Motion Sensor Full Brightness (Off after 20s)
The light remains off in darkness. When motion is detected, it illuminates at full brightness. After approximately 20 seconds of no further motion, the light turns off completely.
-
Mode 2: Motion Sensor Full Brightness (Dim after 20s)
The light remains dim in darkness. When motion is detected, it illuminates at full brightness. After approximately 20 seconds of no further motion, the light returns to dim brightness.
-
Mode 3: Always On Dim Brightness
The light automatically turns on at a constant dim brightness in darkness and stays on until dawn or battery depletion. This mode does not react to motion.
Image: Visual explanation of the three operational modes: Mode 1 (motion-activated full brightness then off), Mode 2 (motion-activated full brightness then dim), and Mode 3 (constant dim light).
Remote Control Functions
Use the provided infrared remote control to select the desired lighting mode and power the unit on/off.
- ON: Powers on the light.
- OFF: Powers off the light.
- MODE 1: Activates Motion Sensor Full Brightness (Off after 20s).
- MODE 2: Activates Motion Sensor Full Brightness (Dim after 20s).
- MODE 3: Activates Always On Dim Brightness.
- SOS: (If applicable) Activates a flashing emergency signal.

Maintenance
- Clean Solar Panel: Regularly wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and charging efficiency.
- Clear Obstructions: Ensure no new obstructions (e.g., growing branches, new structures) block sunlight from reaching the solar panel.
- Battery Care: The integrated lithium battery is designed for long life. Avoid prolonged storage in a completely discharged state. If storing for an extended period, fully charge the light before storage and recharge every few months.
- Inspect for Damage: Periodically check the light fixture and wiring for any signs of damage. If damage is found, discontinue use and contact support.
