Maintenance
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your spotlights, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Battery Replacement: When the light output diminishes or the unit stops functioning, replace all three 1.5V C batteries with new ones. Always replace all batteries at the same time.
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe the surface of the spotlight and motion sensor with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Weather Protection: The spotlights are splash-proof (IP44 rated), meaning they are protected against splashing water from any direction. While designed for outdoor use, avoid submerging the unit in water or exposing it to extreme weather conditions for extended periods.
