INSTRUCTION MANUAL SOLAR SPOT LIGHT 508-000 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Find a location for your light where there is no surrounding shade or light sources that will affect the operation of your solar light. Set the On/Off switch to the “Off” position and allow for a full day’s charge. Once the lights have charged you can set the On/Off switch to the “On” position. You will need to do this only when you set them out for the initial charge or after battery replacement. Once set to the “On” position the lights will automatically turn on at dusk and off at dawn. BATTERY REPLACEMENT: 1. Switch the On/Off switch to the off position and remove the four (4) screws on the back of the solar light (fig. 1). 2. Remove the back cover from the solar panel taking care not to damage any wires (fig. 2). 3. Replace the spent batteries with new batteries, making sure the polarity is correct (fig. 2) 4. Replace the back cover and tighten screws (fig. 3) On/Off Switch 1. Place the garden spike into the ground. 2. Connect the support pole to the garden stake. 3. Connect the solar spot light onto the support pole. Note: This product uses 2 x AA NiCd batteries. The rechargeable batteries must be allowed to fully charge to operate properly. Partially charging the battery on a consistent basis will drastically reduce the life of the battery. TROUBLE SHOOTING: If the light does not turn on in the evening do the following: 1. Check the surrounding area for high ambient lights, such as porch lights, streetlights, etc. 2. Make sure the switch is at the “On” position 3. Make sure solar panel is not located in a shady area, where sunlight is not reaching the unit. 4. Make sure the batteries are making contact with the terminals. (See “BATTERY REPLACEMENT,” to learn how to access battery area.) s Caution: Insert batteries with the correct polarity. Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix different types of batteries: Alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or rechargeable (NiCd). Never short-circuit the battery terminals. Do not dispose of batteries in the fire, batteries may explode or leak. Remove batteries during long periods of non-use or when product is stored. Dispose of batteries safely. MAINTENANCE: 1. It is recommended to clean the solar panels with a damp cloth on a regular basis. *DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OF ANY KIND TO CLEAN. 2. Solar lights are weatherproof, but during winter or cold temperatures (below 0ºC/32ºF), it is best to remove them and wait until the extreme weather dissipates.
