1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the CLAONER Solar Lights. This manual provides detailed instructions for the installation, operation, and maintenance of your new solar lights. These lights are designed to provide efficient and automatic outdoor illumination, utilizing solar energy for charging during the day and lighting up at night. Please read this manual thoroughly before use to ensure proper function and longevity of the product.

2. Safety Information
- Ensure the solar panel is exposed to direct sunlight for optimal charging.
- Do not disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the product yourself. This may void the warranty and cause damage.
- Keep the product away from fire and extreme heat sources.
- Do not immerse the product in water. While it is IP65 rated for weather resistance, prolonged submersion can cause damage.
- Dispose of the product and its components according to local regulations at the end of its lifespan.
3. Package Contents
Verify that all components are present in your package:
- CLAONER Solar Lights (4-pack or 8-pack, depending on purchase)
- Mounting Screws and Wall Plugs (for each light)
- Adhesive Tape (for each light, alternative installation)
- User Manual (this document)
4. Setup and Installation
Before installation, ensure the solar light is fully charged. Place the light in direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours before first use.
4.1 Choosing an Installation Location
Select a location that receives ample direct sunlight throughout the day to ensure optimal charging of the solar panel. Avoid areas under eaves, trees, or other obstructions that might block sunlight. The light is suitable for doors, garages, yards, and other outdoor areas.
Image 4.1: This image illustrates the compact dimensions of the CLAONER solar light (approximately 11.2cm/4.4in width, 10.7cm/4.2in height, 5.9cm/2.3in depth, and 8.1cm/3.2in light panel height). It also highlights its IP65 waterproof rating, heat-resistant, and frost-resistant properties, making it suitable for all weather conditions.
4.2 Installation Methods
There are two primary methods for installing your CLAONER Solar Light:
- Method 1: Screw Installation (Recommended for permanent fixture)
- Mark the desired installation spot on the wall.
- Drill one hole at the marked spot.
- Insert the wall plug into the drilled hole.
- Align the light with the hole and secure it with the provided screw.
- Method 2: Adhesive Tape Installation (For smooth surfaces)
- Clean the surface where the light will be mounted, ensuring it is dry and free of dust or grease.
- Peel off the protective film from the adhesive tape.
- Firmly press the light onto the desired surface for at least 30 seconds.

5. Operating Instructions
The CLAONER Solar Light features an intelligent light sensor and motion sensor for automatic operation. It charges during the day and automatically lights up at night.
Image 5.1: This graphic illustrates the core functionality: the solar light charges its internal battery during the day when exposed to sunlight and automatically illuminates in the dark, providing efficient and hands-free operation.
5.1 Switching Modes
The light has a single button to cycle through its three operating modes. Press the button once, twice, or three times to switch between modes.
- Mode 1: Constant On Mode (Press button once)
The light will stay on at a medium brightness throughout the night, regardless of motion detection. It will automatically turn off at dawn.
- Mode 2: Dim Light Sensor Mode (Press button twice)
The light will stay on at a dim brightness at night. When motion is detected within its range (up to 20ft), it will switch to high brightness for approximately 15-20 seconds, then return to dim light when no motion is detected.
- Mode 3: High Light Sensor Mode (Press button three times)
The light will remain off at night. When motion is detected within its range (up to 20ft), it will turn on at high brightness for approximately 15-20 seconds, then turn off completely when no motion is detected.
Image 5.2: This diagram visually explains the three operating modes: Mode 1 (Constant On) provides continuous medium light; Mode 2 (Dim Light Sensor) maintains dim light and brightens upon motion; Mode 3 (High Light Sensor) remains off and activates high brightness only when motion is detected. The detection angle is 120 degrees.
6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your solar lights.
- Cleaning the Solar Panel: Periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and charging efficiency.
- Clear Obstructions: Ensure no new obstructions (e.g., growing branches, new structures) are blocking direct sunlight from reaching the solar panel.
- Battery Care: The integrated battery is designed for long-term use. Avoid prolonged storage in a completely discharged state. If storing for an extended period, fully charge the light before storage and recharge every few months.
7. Troubleshooting
If your CLAONER Solar Light is not functioning as expected, please refer to the following common issues and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
