ASSEMBLY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

HOW YOUR SOLAR GARDEN ACCENT LIGHT WORKS

During the day, the solar panel collects sunlight and

converts it into electrical power stored in the rechargeable

battery(ies) included. At night, the solar panel, sensing

the absence of light, turns on the solar garden accent light

using the electricity stored during the day. The more

sunlight the fixture gets, the stronger the charge will be

and the longer your fixture will illuminate at night.

All Moonrays® solar garden lights utilize LED (light

emitting diode) technology to provide light. A LED is a

highly efficient source of light compared to other types of

bulbs and they do not need to be replaced. On average, a

LED will last approximately 100,000 hours or more.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT LOCATION FOR YOUR

FIXTURE

1. Install in a location that gets a full day of direct

sunlight. Do not install in a shady area.

2. The fixture should receive a minimum of 8 hours of

sunlight per day for optimal performance at night.

3. Be sure that the location is not near nighttime light

sources such as street lights or porch lights. These

light sources may cause the solar panel to turn the

fixture off.

4. Solar fixtures work independently of each other and

there is no wiring necessary. They may be installed

as far apart as needed.

ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION

1. Remove all contents from box.

2. Many fixtures will ship with a thin protective film over

the solar panels. Gently remove film from the panel(s).

3. Each fixture has an ON/OFF or AUTO/OFF switch,

OR a PULL TAB. Before installing, slide or press

switch located on the bottom or the top of the fixture to

the ON or AUTO position OR remove the pull tab

completely.

4. Assemble all post sections together and attach the

plastic stake tip (if required) to the bottom of the

assembled post. Make sure the solar panel(s) is

facing up.

5. Secure the light head(s) onto the fixture.

6. Chose location and push fixture into ground by placing

hands around the post section. Do not push on the

fixture head/solar panel or you may cause damage to

the fixture.

TROUBLE SHOOTING TIPS

If your solar garden light does not turn on at night, it may

be caused by one of the following conditions:

1. Batteries not fully charged: Make sure the fixture is

placed in an area where the solar panel gets the

maximum amount of full, direct sunlight everyday. If

the solar panel does not receive enough sunlight

during the day (e.g. due to cloudy or overcast weather

conditions), it will be recharged on the next sunny day

and resume operation.

2. Other light sources: If your solar garden light is

located too close to street lights, porch lights or other

lights, the solar panel may turn off the fixture.

Relocate the fixture or eliminate those other light

sources.

3. Not enough direct sunlight: Ensure that the fixtures

are not installed in a shady area, for example, in the

shadow of a tree or a house. If necessary, move the

fixtures to an area that gets full direct sunlight.

4. Battery(ies) may need to be replaced: Always

replace with new rechargeable batteries with similar

rating and type that shipped with the original fixture.

Do not use non-rechargeable batteries. For best

results, use Moonrays® replacement batteries.

5. Switch is not in ON or AUTO position: Slide or

press switch in a dark room. The light(s) should come

on when the switch is in the ON or AUTO position.

TO REPLACE BATTERIES:

1. Remove all the screws that secure the cover to the

battery compartment. Open the compartment.

Remove the rubber gasket that is in between the

battery compartment and the cover (if provided).

2. Remove old battery(ies) and replace with new one(s)

using similar rating and type that shipped with the

original fixture. Make sure to install the battery(ies)

matching the correct polarity (+/-).

3. Replace the cover and secure the screws. Make sure

the rubber gasket (if provided) between the battery

compartment and the cover is put back in place

correctly when re-assembling.

Caution: Always dispose of recyclable batteries at a

proper battery disposal facility. Do not dispose in fire or

attempt to open sealed batteries. Use only the similar

rating and type that shipped with the original fixture. Do

not mix old and new batteries.

To help improve the electrical conductivity of the

battery(ies), periodically open the battery cover and with

the battery(ies) in its compartment, rotate (about 5

complete spins) with your fingers.

1. La pile n'est pas entièrement chargée : assurezvous que le dispositif d'éclairage se trouve là où le panneau solaire reçoit le maximum de lumière du soleil directe et non entravée, et ce, chaque jour. Si le panneau solaire ne reçoit pas assez de lumière du soleil durant le jour (par ex., en raison de conditions nuageuses ou d'un ciel couvert), il se rechargera lors du jour ensoleillé suivant et se remettra à fonctionner.
