Safety instructions for batteries / rechargeable batteries

■ DANGER TO LIFE! Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of reach of children. If accidentally swallowed seek immediate medical attention.

DANGER OF EXPLOSION! Never re-

charge non-rechargeable batteries. Do not short-circuit batteries/rechargeable batteries

and / or open them. Overheating, fire or bursting can be the result.

Never throw batteries / rechargeable batteries into fire or water.
Do not exert mechanical loads to batteries / rechargeable batteries.

Risk of batteries/rechargeable batteries leakage

Avoid extreme environmental conditions and temperatures, which could affect batteries / rechargeable batteries, e.g. radiators / direct sunlight.
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and mucous membranes. In the event of contact with battery acid, thoroughly flush the affected area with plenty of clean water and seek immediate medical attention.

WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES! Leaked or

damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries can cause burns on contact with the skin. Wear

suitable protective gloves at all times if such an event occurs.

In the event of a battery leak, immediately remove it from the product to prevent damage.
Only use the same type of batteries / rechargeable batteries. Do not mix used and new batteries / rechargeable batteries.
■ Remove the batteries / rechargeable batteries if the product will not be used for a longer period.

Risk of damage of the product

Only use the specified type of battery / rechargeable battery!
When inserting ensure the correct polarity! This is shown inside the battery compartment!
- Clean the contacts on the battery and in the battery compartment before inserting!
■ Remove exhausted batteries / rechargeable batteries from the product immediately.

Functioning

The solar cell installed in the product converts sunlight into electrical energy and stores it in 1 Ni-MH rechargeable battery. Switch on the product with the ON / OFF switch ^5 . The product will automatically light on as it begins to get dark. The in-built LED is a very long-life and energy-saving light source. The light duration depends on the amount of sunlight, the

angle of light on the solar cell and the temperature (the rechargeable battery capacity is temperature-dependent). A vertical angle of light at temperatures above the freezing point is ideal. The rechargeable battery 8 does not achieve maximum capacity until after several charge and discharge cycles.

● Preparing for use

Note: Remove all packaging materials from the product.

• Installing the product

Install the product in accordance with Figures A, C, D:

1. Rotate the solar cell housing 1 anticlockwise out of the lamp shade 2 (see Fig. A).
2. Move the ON/OFF switch 5 into the ON position to switch the light on.
3. Insert the solar cell housing 1 into the lamp shade 2 and tighten by turning it clockwise.
4. Place the lamp shade 2 on to the pole 3.
5. Take out the ground stake 4 from the pole 3 and insert it into the pole 3 with the tip facing downwards (see Fig. C).
6. Your product is ready for use (see Fig. D).

- Setting up the product

☐ Insert the assembled product far enough into the ground (lawn, flower bed) for it to be stable.
☐ Make sure you keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not use any force when assembling or setting-up the product, e.g. hammer blows. This will damage the product. In order to achieve the best result, set the product up in a place where the solar cell will get direct sunlight for as long as possible.
☐ Make sure that the solar cell is not influenced by any other source of light such as yard or street lighting as otherwise the light will not come on in twilight.
☐ The light automatically switches on in twilight conditions and off again when normal outdoor lighting conditions return.

● Replacing the rechargeable battery

The rechargeable battery should be replaced every 12 months to ensure optimum performance.

1. Separate the solar cell housing 1 from the lamp shade 2 by moving it anti-clockwise (see Fig. A). Switch off the light with the ON-/OFF-switch 5.
2. Loosen the fastening screws 6 by using a small cross head screwdriver and then lever out the battery compartment lid 7 of the solar cell housing 1 with the help of a slot screwdriver (see Fig. B).
3. Turn over the battery compartment lid 7. Take care not to damage the cables and cable connections (see Fig. B).
4. Exchange the old rechargeable battery 8 to a new one. Take care about the correct polarity, when inserting the new rechargeable battery. The polarity is indicated in the battery compartment. The new rechargeable battery has to have the same technical data like the old one.
5. Now again fasten the battery compartment lid 7, fasten the fastening screws 6 by using a small cross head screw-driver. Slide the ON/OFF switch 5 to the position ON.
6. Connect the solar cell housing 1 again to the lamp shade 2 and then connect every part of the product to each other (see Fig. C).

- Charging the rechargeable battery

Note that the product must be switched on when the rechargeable battery is charging.

The charging time of the rechargeable battery when the solar cell is used depends on the intensity of the sunlight and the angle of incidence of the light on the solar cell. Place the solar cell as perpendicular as possible to the angle of incidence of the light. In this way you will receive the highest light levels.

● Maintenance and care

The LED cannot be replaced. The product is maintenance-free, except for any necessary change of rechargeable battery.

☐ Clean the product regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth. Use a slightly dampened cloth to remove more stubborn dirt.

- Troubleshooting
