Battery replacement
NOTE: Use two AA size, 600mAh, 1.2V Nickel Metal
Hydride rechargeable batteries. For best
performance, replace with two Nickel Metal Hydride
rechargeable batteries annually. Do not mix old and
new batteries or batteries of different ratings.
IMPORTANT: Dispose of the battery in accordance
with local, state, and federal regulations.
IMPORTANT: When storing any solar product for an
extended period of time, remove the batteries.
Storing any solar product without regular recharge or
removal of batteries could cause permanent damage
to the rechargeable batteries.
□ Unscrew the battery cover (E) from the back of the
solar assembly (A) and remove it.
□ Remove the old batteries (D). Replace with two new
AA size, 1.2V Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable
batteries. The recommended replacement battery
capacity should be 600~900mAh.
□ Replace the battery cover (E) with the four screws.
Care and Cleaning
Periodic cleaning of the solar panel and glass housing is quick and easy:
□ The solar panel should be cleaned periodically with a damp cloth to help maintain optimum performance.
□ Do not use any cleaners with chemicals, solvents, or harsh abrasives.
Troubleshooting
Problem
Possible Cause
Solution
The nightly run time
is shorter.
The battery is not fully charged.
Ensure the solar light is located in an area
where it can receive the maximum amount of
full, direct sunlight every day. Keeping the
solar panel clean is equally important to
ensure the maximum charging performance.
The battery is reaching the end of its useful
life.
Replace the old batteries with two new Nickel
Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) rechargeable batteries.
The solar light does
not turn on at night.
Your solar light is equipped with an
AUTO/OFF switch on the back of the solar
box. This switch must be set to AUTO prior to
use.
Prior to use, check that the unit has been set
to the AUTO position and allowed to charge a
full sunny day.
The solar light is installed close to other light
sources, which may keep the solar light from
turning on at night automatically.
Relocate the fixture or eliminate other light
sources.
