TOOLS REQUIRED FOR INSTALL
If mounting on a wood or softer surface, you only need a Phillips-head screwdriver! If
mounting on concrete, brick, or a harder surface, a drill should be used to create the
mounting holes first
BEFORE FIRST USE OF YOUR SOLAR SECURITY LIGHT
Ensure the power switch on the main body of your Security Light is in the OFF position.

Leave the switch in the OFF position for 3 days with the solar panel placed in direct

sunlight, ideally facing the Southern sky. This will ensure that the battery in your
Solar Security Light has a full charge prior to motion sensor adjustment and normal
operation.
OPERATING YOUR SOLAR SECURITY LIGHT
After the initial 3 day charge of your Solar Security Light, move the switch on the main body
to the AUTO position. When you do this, the light should activate immediately, regardless
of lighting conditions or motion. This is a test activation to show there is power flowing
from the battery to the light. It should last roughly 30 seconds. After this test activation,
the light will function based on the dial settings mentioned below. Your Solar Security Light
is now ready for use.
Underneath the motion sensor, there are 3 adjustment dials: TIME/SENS/LUX. The light
has been factory preset as follows:
TIME
Set at 30 seconds.
SENS Set at a 10 - 15 foot range (when the surrounding temperature is 75 F).
LUX
Set for your Security Light to activate at dusk when motion is detected.
If the above settings are not suitable for your application, then these may be adjusted using
the steps below.
TIME PERIOD ADJUSTMENT (TIME)
The time period control dial sets the duration of the light upon each activation that the Solar
Security Light will remain illuminated after the last detected motion. The time period has an
adjustable range of 10 seconds to 1 minute.
To decrease the time period, move the dial toward the ( – ) symbol.
To increase the time period, move the dial toward the ( + ) symbol.
Test the time period by triggering the motion sensor and measure the time period the light
stays on. Adjust the TIME control until the desired illumination duration is reached.
A shorter TIME setting will conserve battery life. For best results, use the shortest TIME
setting for your location as possible.
MOTION SENSOR ADJUSTMENT (SENS)
The motion sensor on this Solar Security Light is temperature-sensitive. The cooler the
temperature, the more sensitive the motion sensor will become. Use the SENS dial to
