3. Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation of your daphino solar lights:
- Choose a Location: Select a location that receives direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily to ensure optimal charging. A recommended installation height is approximately 8 feet (2.4 meters).
- Mark Drill Points: Use the wall bracket to mark the positions for drilling holes.
- Drill Holes and Insert Anchors: Drill holes at the marked positions. Insert the plastic anchors into the drilled holes.
- Mount the Bracket: Secure the wall bracket to the wall using the provided screws.
- Attach the Light: Hang the solar light unit onto the mounted bracket, ensuring the solar panel is facing upwards to maximize sun exposure.
- Adjust Panels: Adjust the angle of the solar panel and the three light heads to achieve the desired illumination area.

4. Operating Instructions
The daphino solar light features three distinct operating modes. To select a mode, locate the button on the back of the light unit and press it to cycle through the options.
4.1 Lighting Modes
- Mode 1: Motion Sensor Full Brightness
The light remains off until motion is detected. Upon detection, the light turns on at 100% brightness for approximately 30 seconds, then turns off. - Mode 2: Dim Light All Night + Motion Sensor Full Brightness
The light stays on at a continuous 30% brightness throughout the night. When motion is detected, it brightens to 100% for approximately 30 seconds, then returns to 30% brightness. - Mode 3: Low Light All Night + Motion Sensor Full Brightness
The light stays on at a continuous 10% brightness throughout the night. When motion is detected, it brightens to 100% for approximately 30 seconds, then returns to 10% brightness.

5. Maintenance
To ensure the optimal performance and longevity of your solar lights, consider the following maintenance tips:
- Clean the Solar Panel: Regularly wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, snow, or debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and charging efficiency.
- Clear Obstructions: Ensure no trees, bushes, or other structures obstruct direct sunlight from reaching the solar panel, especially during peak daylight hours.
- Inspect for Damage: Periodically check the light unit and wiring for any signs of damage or wear. If any damage is found, contact customer support.
- Battery Care: The integrated lithium-ion battery is designed for long life. Avoid prolonged storage in a completely discharged state. If storing for an extended period, ensure the light is fully charged beforehand.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your daphino solar lights, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on at night. | Insufficient solar charge. | Ensure the solar panel is in direct sunlight for 6-8 hours daily. Clean the solar panel. |
| Light flickers or has low brightness. | Partial charge or dirty solar panel. | Allow for a full day's charge. Clean the solar panel. |
| Motion sensor not detecting movement. | Sensor obstructed or incorrect mode. | Ensure the sensor is clear of obstructions. Verify the light is in a motion-sensing mode (Mode 1, 2, or 3). |
| Light turns off too quickly. | Battery low or sensor sensitivity. | Ensure adequate charging. The light is designed to turn off after approximately 30 seconds without motion. |
