Solar-powered LED light ball

- Intended use

The solar light is intended as an outdoor accent light. The product is not intended for commercial use.

Not suitable for ordinary lighting in household room illumination.
This product is suitable for extreme temperatures below -20^

The solar module built into this product converts sunlight into electricity and stores it in the rechargeable NiMH battery. The light switches on at dusk. The in-built light-emitting diodes are a very long-life and energy-saving light source.

The light duration depends on the amount of sunlight, the angle at which light hits the solar panel, and the temperature (the battery capacity varies by temperature). A vertical angle of light at temperatures above the freezing point is ideal. The battery does not achieve maximum capacity until after several charge and discharge cycles.

DANGER-RISK OF

CHEMICAL BURNS! Leaking batteries can cause chemical burns.

Be careful not to allow the battery fluid to come into contact with your skin or your eyes. If this does happen, immediately try to remove the battery fluid under cold running water. Seek medical attention to be safe.

- Initial use

- Mounting the light

Remove the individual parts from the packaging and assemble the solar light as shown in Figure A. There are two options: the spacer tube 3 will make the solar light approx. 42cm on IAN 273025; approx. 34cm on IAN 273026; approx. 51cm on IAN 273027 tall (see Fig.B), the spacer tube 2 will make it approx. 29cm on IAN 273025; approx. 24cm on IAN 273026; approx. 34cm on IAN 273027 tall (see Fig.C).

Insert the selected spacer tube 2 or 3 into the designated opening on the solar module 5 (see Fig. A).

Then insert the ground stake 1 into the bottom of the spacer tube 2 or 3 (see Fig. A).

- Installing the light

Note: The solar light can be installed without a power source.

Only use the solar light with the included ground stake 1.

Push the assembled solar light far enough into the ground (lawn, flower bed) so it is stable. Since the light relies on sunlight, consider and observe the following points prior to installation.

1. Select a location where the solar module 5 is exposed to direct sunlight during the day.
2. Position the solar light so the solar module 5 is not covered or in the shade (trees, roof ridge, etc.).
3. Be sure the solar module 5 is not impacted by another light source, e.g. yard or street lighting, as this will prevent the light from switching on at dusk. Remember many light sources will only switch on due to the time or movement during the night.

Preparing the light prior to initial use

Note: The solar light features a twilight sensor and an On/Off switch. When fully charged the light on time is approx. 6 to 8 hours.

Unscrew the sphere 4 from the solar module 5 counter-clockwise. Set the On/Off switch 6 to the ON position before using it for the first time.
Screw the sphere 4 clockwise all the way into the solar module 5 and place the solar light in the sun.

- Switching the light on / off

Slide the On/Off switch 6 to the ON position. The solar light will automatically switch on at dusk. At dawn the light will automatically switch off.
Slide the On/Off switch 6 to the OFF position. The solar light is permanently switched off.

Replacingthe rechargeable battery

Note: The rechargeable battery [11] is designed for prolonged operation. However, it may need to be replaced after being used for a long time. Rechargeable batteries are subject to natural wear and the output may decrease. For optimal performance the batteries should be replaced every 12 months.

Replace the rechargeable battery as shown in figures D-F.

Unscrew the sphere 4 counter-clockwise.
Slide the On / Off switch 6 on the solar module 5 to the OFF position.
Remove the solar module 5 from the spacer tube 2 or 3.
Loosen the two screws 7 on the underside counter-clockwise using a suitable cross-tip screwdriver and remove the housing 8 from the remainder of the module (see Fig. D).

Then also loosen the three screws on the underside of the cover counter-clockwise using a suitable cross-tip screwdriver and remove the cover from the remainder of the module (see Fig. E).
Remove the battery 11 and replace with a new, charged rechargeable battery of the same type (see "Technical Data"). Please note the polarity (+ / -) when inserting the rechargeable battery (see Fig. F).
Now reattach the cover 10 to the solar cell 12 and secure clockwise using the three screws 9.
Then reattach the housing 8 and secure clockwise using the two screws 7.
Reattach the solar module 5 to the spacer tube 2 or 3.
Slide the On/Off switch 6 to the ON position again.
Screw the sphere 4 all the way into the solar module 5, turning clockwise.
