USER MANUAL SOL 04 PLUS BRENNENSTUHL

• The lamp should ideally be installed at a height of 1.8 to 2.5 metres to cover the maxi- mum monitored area (see Fig. 1A).

• To avoid false alarms, the light should be installed away from heat sources such as air conditioners, other outside lights, running cars, exhaust vents, and strong sources of electromagnetic disturbance.

• Do not aim the sensor at reflective surfaces such as smooth, white walls, swimming pools, etc.

• The motion detector’s monitored area (about 7 metres at 100° monitoring field) can change somewhat depending on the height at which it is installed and the installation site. The monitored area can also change due to ambient temperature.

• Before you choose an installation site, please note that the motion detector reacts with greater sensitivity to movement across the monitored area than movements directly to ward or away from the sensor (see Fig. 1B).

• Mount the lamp such that the solar module receives the maximum possible DIRECT SUNLIGHT during the day. INSTALLATION STEPS

1. Remove the light’s mounting plate by opening the locking mechanism using the en-

closed key and turning it toward „OPEN“. 2.Drill two holes in the wall on which you wish to install the lamp and mount the mounting plate with the screws (see Fig. 2).

3. Mount the lamp on the mounting plate and secure it by turning the key to „LOCK“. Re-

move the key and keep it for future use. OPERATION

1. The rechargeable batteries inside are charged by the solar module. The longer the solar

module is exposed to direct sunlight during theday, the longer the light can remain on. Before starting to use the light, the batteries should be charged in sunlight for at least 3 to 4 days (slider switch set to OFF). Alternately, the batteries can be charged with a standard battery charger. 2.After the batteries are charged, the lamp can be used. The following operational modes can be set on the slider switch on the back of the housing.

UTO: Normal operation through the integrated motion detector ON: Constant light(e.g. as emergency light) OFF: Deactivation for storage and for charging FUNCTION

1. When the lgiht is turned on for the first time, the LEDs light up and the motion detector

begins to warm up. The LEDs will stay on for around 40 seconds and then blink 3 times and switch into operational mode. 2.The light is equipped with a dimmer switch, i.e. the light switches into „AUTO“ mode when it gets dark. The LEDs activate when movement is detected in the monitored area and stay on around 60 seconds after the last movement. If motion is detected when the light is already on, the lighting period begins again and the LEDs stay on for another 60 seconds.

3. In daylight or in bright surroundings, the light is not activated by motion.

REPLACING THE RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES

1. Set the switch to the OFF-position.

2. Remove the screws from the battery cover on the back of the light.

3. Remove the old batteries and replace them with new rechargeable AA Ni-MH 1.2 V bat-

teries. Make sure the +/- poles are correctly connected.

4. The batteries should be charged in direct sunlight for at least 3 to 4 days prior the first

ROUBLESHOOTING Problem Light does not activate when there is movement in the monitored area. Possible Cause Suggested Solution

1. Batteries are dead Recharge batteries

2.Nearby lights too bright. Aim the unit away from the light source Problem Light activates for no apparent reason (false alarm). Possible Cause Suggested Solution

1. Heat sources such as air Place the light beyond these sources

conditioners, exhaust vents, ventilation openings, other outdoor lights, running cars, activate the sensor.

2. Animals, e.g. martens or house pets. Re-aiming the light can help.

3. Reflections from pool or Re-aim light

from reflecting surfaces. NOTE: Motion detectors are more sensitive in dry and cold surroundings than in moist and hot surroundings.
