HOW SOLAR WORKS

The solar panel, located inside the top acrylic/glass housing, converts sunlight

into electricity. During the day, the energy is stored in the pre-installed

rechargeable battery. At night, the light is powered by this battery. Operating

time depends on geographical location, daily weather conditions and season.

For best performance, allow the battery to charge for 6 to 8 hours in direct

sunlight.

WINTER TIP

Keep debris and snow off the solar panel to allow the battery to recharge. If

the light has been covered by snow for a long period, allow battery to recharge

in full, direct sunlight for at least 8 to 10 hours.

PROBLEM:

The nightly runtime is shorter than it should be.

SOLUTION:

The battery is not adequately charged. Make sure the light is located where it

can receive the maximum amount of full, direct sunlight every day.

PROBLEM:

The lights do not turn on in the evening.

SOLUTION:

Follow Replacing the Battery instructions and replace the battery and/or

ensure battery is securely snapped into place.

The light may be located near other light sources causing the photocell to not

recognize it’s dark. Relocate or eliminate the other light sources.
