CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE: Please use a damp cloth to clean the solar panel. Do not use any chemical or
abrasive cleaner. It is important to ensure that no moisture enters into the solar light.
RECHARGEABLE BATTERY: The product contains (1) AA 1000 mAh(1.2V) Ni-MH rechargeable battery.
When the battery expires, it must be recycled or disposed of properly. Please contact your local waste disposal authority
for the correct procedure. Do not expose battery to fire.
FUNCTION: The built-in solar panels convert sunlight into electricity. The rechargeable battery stores the energy and
converts the power into light for use during the night. The overall performance and illumination hours of the solar light
are largely dependent on the geographic location, weather and temperature conditions. Stronger and longer exposure
to direct sunlight will maximize the stored energy in the battery and provide longer lighting hours.
LOCATION: It is important to select an outdoor location with full, direct sunlight where the solar panel can receive at
least 8 hours of sunlight each day. Shady areas will not enable batteries to be fully charged. This will reduce the lighting
hours at night. It is also important to avoid placing the solar light by light sources, such as street lights or porch lights,
which may cause the solar light to turn off automatically. The solar light is designated for outdoor usage and ideal for
night lighting of gardens, paths, etc.

If light does not work, please follow these troubleshooting steps:
Check the rechargeable battery and make sure that it is in contact to the metal plate and the polarity is correct. If the
battery is worn out, replace the battery with (1) AA 1000 mAh(1.2V) Ni-MH rechargeable battery.
Always keep the solar light distant from other night light sources, such as exterior lights. Reposition the light to avoid
close contact with other night light sources.
Make sure solar panel is clean and free of dirt and debris. If needed use a damp cloth to clean the solar panel. Do
not use any chemical or abrasive cleaner. It is important to ensure that no moisture enters into the solar light.
