The light turns on when the motion sensor detects movement. Sensor
detects motion up to 40 ft. The 180-degree coverage of the motion
sensor is measured side-to-side. The sensor is more e ective
side-to-side, rather than motion coming straight at it
(in-and-out). Fixed timer is 15 seconds; the light will stay on
for 15 seconds after motion detection (only during night
hours).
Extreme hot or cold weather could a ect the performance of the built-in
sensors that detect body heat. Certain winter clothing can shield a person's
body heat from the sensor during extreme cold weather. During extreme hot
weather, the sensor may not be able to distinguish the di erence between
normal body temperatures and the surrounding high temperatures. The
sensor works as expected once weather conditions return to normal.

1. Slide switch to "ON" position.
2. Replace the batteries.
3. Reinstall the batteries correctly.
4. Check battery compartment cover to ensure it is closed
and secured with the screw.
5. Fixture detects motion up to 40 ft. Make sure it is
positioned within that range.
1. Change the position of the light heads, aiming light
away from the reflecting surfaces.
2. Remove heat source from detection zone or move
fixture to new location.
1. Move fixture to a lit area; without shadows.
