MENTS! This device may be used by children aged 8 years and up, as well as by persons with re- duced physical, sensory or mental capacities, or lacking experience and / or knowledge, so long as they are supervised or instructed in the safe use of the device and understand the associated risks. Do not allow children to play with the appli- ance. Cleaning and user mainte- nance should not be performed by children without supervision. Do not use the product if you detect any type of damage. Switch the product off whilst storing in a dark environment to prevent draining the battery. This product is only suitable for the specified use. Product-specific safety instructions

that when the light is removed, the ground stake is also re- moved, so that it cannot pose any risk (e.g. stumbling over it). The fairy lights garden set must not be connected with the power supply while it is still in its packaging, provided that the packaging has not been ad- justed for exhibition purposes. Make sure the solar cell is free of dirt and free of snow and ice in winter. Otherwise the per- formance of the solar panel will be diminished.21 GB/IE Cold temperatures negatively impact the battery operating time. If the solar fairy lights will not be used for extended peri- ods, e.g. in winter, they should be cleaned and stored in a dry, warm location. This product is not suitable as residen- tial room lighting. Safety instructions for rechargeable batteries

AND CHILDREN! Recharge- able batteries are not intended to be in the hands of children. Do not leave the batteries ly- ing around. There is a danger that these will be swallowed by children or pets. If they are accidentally swallowed seek immediate medical attention. CAUTION! EX- PLOSION HAZ- ARD! Use only rechargeable batteries of the recommended type. Other re- chargeable or single-use bat- teries could explode during charging. FIRE HAZARD! Never short-circuit rechargeable bat- teries. Otherwise the recharge- able batteries may overheat, become a fire hazard or ex- plode. CAUTION! EX- PLOSION HAZ- ARD! Never throw rechargeable batteries into fire or water. Expired or drained rechargea- ble batteries may leak chemi- cals which will damage the product. Therefore remove the rechargeable battery if the fairy lights will not be used for ex- tended periods. WEAR PROTEC- TIVE GLOVES! Leaked or damaged rechargeable batteries could cause chemical burns on con- tact with the skin; you should therefore wear suitable protec- tive gloves at all times if such an event occurs.22 GB/IE Only use rechargeable batter- ies of the correct size and and the recommended type (see section ”Technical data”).

nsure correct polarity, indicated in the battery compartment. Functionality The solar cell built into the product converts sunlight into electricity and stores it in a Ni-MH rechargeable battery. The light switches on at dus

The built-in LED is an energy-saving illuminant with a very long life. The light duration depends on the amou

of sunlight, the angle at which light hits the solar panel, and the temper- ature (the battery capacity varies by temperature). A vertical angle of light at temperatures above the freezing point is ideal. The recharge- able battery will only achieve its maximum capacity after several charging and discharging cycles. Initial use Before first use, remove the protective film from the solar panel. Assembling the fairy lights Push the ground spike

into the upright tube

. Then at- tach the cover

(see Fig. A). Note: Slide the solar cell housing

if this has not been pre-installed (see Fig. A).

through the fastening clip

with the illuminant facing down (see Fig. B).

Carefully clamp the fairy lights

in the fastening clip

Now attach the paper lantern

Carefully slide the holder

into the paper lantern

and secure to the grommets

(see Fig. B). Installing the fairy lights Push the ground spike

far enough into the ground (lawn, flower bed) so it is firmly posi- tioned upright in the ground. Make sure it is firmly positioned. Do not use any force when23 GB/IE assembling or setting up the product, e.g. hammer blows. This will damage the product. For optimal results, hang the solar fairy lights in a location where the solar cell is exposed to sunlight for the longest pos- sible amount of time. Make sure the solar cell is not impacted by other light sources, e.g. yard- or street lighting, or the light will not switch on at twilight. In low light the light will automatically switch on, and automatically switch off in normal ambient light. Switching the fairy lights on / off Push the AUTO / OFF button

to switch the fairy lights on. The fairy lights

will automati- cally switch on or off at twilight. Push the AUTO / OFF button

again to switch the fairy lights

off. Replacing the rechargeable battery Note: For optimal performance, the rechargeable battery should be replaced every 12 months. Remove the solar cell housing

to switch the fairy lights off. Remove the fixing screws

using a small cross-tip screw- driver. Then open the battery cover on the solar cell housing

using a flat-head screw- driver. Replace the old battery with a new one; be sure not to dam- age the cables. Be sure to in- sert the batteries in the correct direction. This is indicated in the battery compartment. Use only rechargeable batteries of the recommended type (see “Technical data“). Close the battery cover and tighten the retaining screws

to switch the fairy lights on.24 GB/IE Slide the solar cell housing

(see Fig. A). Charging The battery charging period using the solar cell depends on the inten- sity of the sunlight and the angle incidence of the light on the solar cell. Place the solar cell as perpen- dicular as possible to the angle of light incidence. In this way you will receive the highest light levels. Maintenance and cleaning The LEDs cannot be replaced. The solar fairy lights are maintenance free except for replacing the battery. Regularly clean the solar fairy lights with a dry, lint-free cloth. Use a slightly moist cloth to remove any stubborn dirt. Troubleshooting Note: The device contains sensitive electronic components. Radio trans- mitting equipment in the immediate vicinity may therefore cause inter- ference. If you notice the device is malfunctioning, remove any sources of interference from the area around the device. Note: Electrostatic discharge can lead to malfunctions. In the event of such malfunctions, briefly remove and reinsert the rechargeable batteries. Error Cause Solution The light will not switch on although the fairy lights have been expo- sed to sunlight all day. Artificial light, e.g. street light, will interfe- re with the fairy lights. Install the fairy lights in a location where they will not be affected by other light sources.25 GB/IE Error Cause Solution The light does not come on or comes on only briefly. The rechargeable bat- tery is broken or there was not enough day- light. Replace the recharge- able battery or install the fairy lights in a location where they are exposed to more sunlight.
