4. Installation Guide
Follow these steps for proper installation of your BAILONGJU Permanent Outdoor String Lights:
- Plan Placement: Determine the desired path for your string lights. Ensure the lights are installed 5-10 cm (2-4 inches) away from the wall surface for optimal light dispersion.
- Clean Surface: Before applying, thoroughly clean the installation surface (e.g., eaves, roofline) with a cloth or tissue to remove dust and debris. A clean surface ensures strong adhesive bonding.
- Apply Lights: Carefully peel off the VHB adhesive backing from each light unit. Press the light firmly against the cleaned surface for at least 5 seconds to secure it.
- Secure with Clips: For long-term stability and to prevent falling, attach the provided screw clips to each string light unit. Use the included screws and screwdriver to fix the clips firmly.
- Connect Adapter: Connect the string lights to the control box, and then connect the control box to the power adapter. Ensure all connections are secure and the caps are screwed on tightly to maintain waterproof integrity.
- Power On: Plug the power adapter into a suitable outdoor power outlet.
