The light will switch to auto mode automatically after the first 3 minutes. The light will go into AUTO mode directly after the initial test mode. The light will turn on automatically at night when motion is detected by the motion detector head.
ECO MODE If the battery has limited power, the unit will automatically go into ECO mode, wherein the light will lower in brightness in order to conserve battery power. The timing of this automatic function can be adjusted in the App. You can also manually select ECO mode if a lower power setting, which will allow the light to function longer, is needed. When the unit is activated for the first time, it will blink once and be ready in 40 seconds.
MAINTENANCE, CLEANING AND CARE • Periodically check the connection from the solar panel to the light. Ensure this plug is correctly inserted. • Some seasonal adjustment of the solar panel may be required to offset shorter charge days during the winter. • Ensure the solar panel is free from any obstruction such as trees or buildings. • The solar panel should be cleaned on a regular basis. This will ensure the LED Solar Motion light charges consistently.
TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Solution Where should the solar panel be mounted? Mount the solar panel in a position that will enable the maximum amount of light to be absorbed. In the Northern Hemi- sphere this is usually south facing. Does the solar panel require direct sun to charge? The solar panel can charge the internal battery in direct and indirect light. For best results, place the panel in direct light to maximize and increase efficiency.
