7. Operating Instructions

Your BesLowe Outdoor Wall Light is equipped with an advanced dusk-to-dawn photocell sensor for automatic operation.

• Automatic On/Off: The sensor detects ambient light levels. The fixture will automatically turn on when it gets dark (dusk) and turn off when it becomes light (dawn).
• Sensor Placement: Ensure the sensor is not obstructed by objects or exposed to direct artificial light sources (e.g., other floodlights, streetlights) at night, as this may interfere with its operation and cause the light to turn off prematurely.
• Initial Test: After installation, if it is daytime, the light may not turn on immediately. Cover the sensor to simulate darkness; the light should illuminate. Uncover the sensor, and the light should turn off after a short delay.

8. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your light fixture.

• Cleaning: To clean the fixture, ensure power is off. Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish or glass.
• Bulb Replacement: Ensure power is off before replacing the bulb. Allow the old bulb to cool completely. Unscrew the old bulb and screw in a new E26 base bulb, ensuring it does not exceed 100W.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the fixture for any signs of damage, loose connections, or wear. Address any issues promptly.
