RISK OF

CHILDREN! Keep rechargeable batteries away from chil- dren. Do not leave the batteries lying around. There is a danger that these will be swallowed by children or pets. If they are accidentally swallowed seek immediate medical attention. Children or persons lacking knowledge or ex- perience in handling the device or have limited physical, sensory or mental abilities, must not use the device without supervision or instruction by a person responsible for their safety. Chil- dren must be supervised at all times to prevent them from playing with the device. Never leave children unsupervised with the packaging material. The packaging material poses a suffocation hazard. Children frequently underestimate the dangers. Please always keep the product out of the reach of children. This product is not a toy and should be kept out of the reach of children. Children are not aware of the dangers associated with handling electrical products. Do not use the product if you detect any type of damage.

HAZARD! Do not use the solar light in explosive environments con- taining flammable vapours, gasses or dusts.17 GB/IE Product-specific safety instructions Do not expose the solar light to strong vibration or high mechanical loads. 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. Cold temperatures negatively impact the bat- tery operating time. Clean and store the solar light in a dry, warm location during extended periods of non-use, e.g. in winter. In the event of damage, repairs or other prob- lems with the solar light, please contact an electrician. The LEDs cannot be replaced.

HAZARD! Use only rechargeable batteries of the recommended type. Other rechargeable or single-use batter- ies could explode during charging.

DANGER - RISK OF IN-

JURY! When removing the solar light, be sure to also remove the base and ground stake to prevent hazards (e.g. tripping). DANGER - FIRE HAZARD! Never switch the solar light on in- side the packaging. Safety instructions for rechargeable batteries Outdated or used rechargeable batteries may leak chemicals which will damage the product. Therefore remove the rechargeable batteries when not using the solar light for extended periods. DANGER - FIRE HAZARD! Never short-circuit rechargeable batteries. Otherwise the recharge- able batteries may overheat, become a fire hazard or explode.

HAZARD! Never throw recharge- able batteries into fire or water.

SAFETY GLOVES! Leaked or damaged rechargeable batteries could cause chemical burns on contact with the skin; you should therefore wear suitable protective gloves at all times if such an event occurs.

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.18 GB/IE Initial use Mounting the light Remove the individual parts from the packag- ing and assemble the solar light as shown in Figure A. There are two options: the spacer tube

will make the solar light approx. 42 cm (on IAN 273025); approx. 34 cm (on IAN 273026); approx. 51 cm (on IAN 273027) tall (see Fig. B), the spacer tube

will make it approx. 29 cm (on IAN 273025); approx. 24 cm (on IAN 273026); approx. 34 cm (on IAN 273027) tall (see Fig. C). Insert the selected spacer tube

into the designated opening on the solar module

hen insert the ground stake

(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

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 installat ion.

is exposed to direct sunlight during the day.

is not covered or in the shade (trees, roof ridge, etc.).

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

to the ON position before using it for the first time. Screw the sphere

and place the solar light in the sun.19 GB/IE Switching the light on / off Slide the On / Off switch

to the OFF posi- tion. The solar light is permanently switched off. Replacing the rechargeable battery Note: The rechargeable battery

is designed for prolonged operation. However, it may need to be replaced after being used for a long time. Re- chargeable batteries are subject to natural wear and the output may decrease. For optimal perfor- mance the batteries should be replaced every 12 months. Replace the rechargeable battery as shown in figures D–F. Unscrew the sphere

from the spacer tube

Loosen the two screws

on the underside counter-clockwise using a suitable cross-tip screwdriver and remove the housing

from the remainder of the module (see Fig. D). Then also loosen the three screws

on the underside of the cover counter-clockwise us- ing a suitable cross-tip screwdriver and remove the cover

from the remainder of the module (see Fig. E). Remove the battery

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

and secure clockwise using the three screws

Then reattach the housing

and secure clockwise using the two screws

to the ON position again. Screw the sphere

, turning clockwise. Troubleshooting Note: The device contains sensitive electronic components. Radio transmitting equipment in the immediate vicinity may therefore cause interference.

hese could be e.g. mobile phones, two-way rad ios, CB radios, radio / other remote controls and micro- waves. If you notice the device is malfunctioning,20 GB/IE remove any sources of interference from the area around the device. Notice: Electrostatic discharge can lead to mal- functions. In the event of such malfunctions, briefly remove and reinsert the rechargeable batteries. Note: The performance of the rechargeable battery is better in summer than in winter due to the weather.
