- Attach Mounting Plate: Secure the provided mounting plate to your electrical box using the screws.
- Connect Wires: Connect the wires from the fixture to your house wiring using wire nuts:
- Fixture black wire to house black wire (Live).
- Fixture white wire to house white wire (Neutral).
- Fixture ground wire to house ground wire.
- Mount Fixture: Carefully align the fixture with the mounting plate and secure it with the provided screws.
- Install Bulb: Insert an E26 base dimmable LED or incandescent bulb (Max 100W) into the ceramic socket. The open bottom design allows for easy access.
- Restore Power: Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker.
- Reset GFCI: After installation, press the "RESET" button located between the GFCI outlets to activate them for use.
Important: The light fixture should be installed at least 4 feet from the ground for optimal GFCI outlet functionality and safety.
Operating Instructions
The Yisuro Porch Light features three lighting modes, adjustable via a switch located on the motion sensor unit. The factory default setting is typically 'High Mode'.
Image: Overview of the 3 lighting modes and mode selection switch.
Mode Selection
To change modes, locate the small switch on the motion sensor unit at the top of the fixture. Slide the switch to select your desired mode:
- High Mode: The light stays at 30% brightness all night. When motion is detected, it brightens to 100% for 60 seconds, then returns to 30% brightness.
- Low Mode: The light remains off at night when no movement is detected. When motion is detected, it turns on to 100% brightness for 60 seconds, then turns off.
- Manual Mode: In Auto mode (High or Low), quickly toggle the wall switch "on-off-on" within 0.5-2 seconds to enter Manual Mode. The light will turn on and stay at 100% brightness for 8 hours, or until the dusk-to-dawn sensor detects light in the morning. To exit Manual Mode, toggle the wall switch off and on again, or wait for the 8-hour cycle to complete.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: To clean the fixture, ensure power is off at the circuit breaker. Use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or glass.
- Bulb Replacement: Turn off power at the circuit breaker. Unscrew the old bulb and screw in a new E26 base dimmable LED or incandescent bulb (Max 100W).
- GFCI Testing: Test the GFCI outlets monthly. Plug a small appliance (like a nightlight) into the GFCI outlet. Press the "TEST" button. The appliance should turn off. Press the "RESET" button. The appliance should turn back on. If it does not, the GFCI may be faulty and should be replaced by a qualified electrician.
- Sensor Cleaning: Keep the motion and dusk-to-dawn sensors clean and free from obstructions (e.g., spiderwebs, dirt) to ensure optimal performance.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on | No power; faulty bulb; incorrect wiring; sensor obstruction. | Check circuit breaker. Replace bulb. Verify wiring connections. Clear sensor. Ensure GFCI is reset. |
| Light stays on constantly | Manual Mode activated; sensor obstruction; faulty sensor. | Toggle wall switch off/on to exit Manual Mode. Clear sensor. Contact support if sensor is faulty. |
| Motion sensor not detecting | Sensor obstruction; incorrect mode; sensor range issues. | Clear sensor. Ensure correct mode (High/Low). Verify installation height and clear line of sight. |
| GFCI outlets not working | GFCI tripped; no power; faulty GFCI. | Press "RESET" button on GFCI. Check circuit breaker. Test GFCI; if faulty, replace. |
