Operating Instructions
The HOFTRONIC Kansas Solar LED Wall Light operates automatically, charging during the day and activating at night based on its selected mode and motion detection.
Selecting Operating Modes
The light features two operating modes. To switch between modes, locate the mode button on the back of the unit (refer to the image below) and press and hold it for 3 seconds.

- Mode 1 (Standard Mode):
In this mode, the light will illuminate constantly at a low brightness of 15 lumens after dusk. When motion is detected within its 120-degree range, the light will brighten to 500 lumens for approximately 30 seconds, then return to 15 lumens.
- Mode 2 (Dimmed Mode):
In this mode, the light remains off after dusk. It will only activate to 500 lumens when motion is detected within its 120-degree range. After approximately 30 seconds of no further motion, the light will turn off completely.

Maintenance
The HOFTRONIC Kansas Solar LED Wall Light is designed for low maintenance. Regular cleaning will ensure optimal performance.
- Cleaning the Solar Panel: Periodically 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.
- General Cleaning: Clean the light's housing with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Seasonal Checks: In areas with heavy snowfall or prolonged periods of low sunlight, ensure the solar panel is clear of snow or ice to allow for charging.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on at night. | Insufficient solar charge. Solar panel is dirty or obstructed. Light is in "off" mode (if applicable). Battery issue. | Ensure the light is placed in direct sunlight for at least 8 hours. Clean the solar panel. Check the operating mode and switch if necessary. Contact customer support if the issue persists after charging. |
| Light stays dim or does not brighten with motion. | Insufficient charge. Motion sensor obstructed or faulty. Incorrect mode selected. | Allow for more charging time. Ensure nothing is blocking the sensor's detection area. Verify the light is in Mode 1 (Standard Mode) for constant dim light with brightening. |
| Light turns on during the day. | Light sensor (photocell) is obstructed or faulty. | Ensure the solar panel area, which contains the light sensor, is not covered or in shadow during daylight hours. |
