Resumen del manual
Therefore, the number of hours the light will stay on will be reduced during winter. 1 BEFORE FIRST USE – Pull out to remove the clear plastic strip with orange sticker in the light fixture to charge batteries. Your new solar light’s rechargeable Ni-Cd battery is fully charged and ready for use. Install the solar light in direct sunlight. For optimum performance, it is best to charge the solar light for a FULL, SUNNY DAY. The light will turn on automatically at night. The Ni-Cd rechargeable battery provides increased brightness and stays on longer as it cycles over time (days and nights of charging and discharging). The more direct sunlight that the light receives during the day, the brighter and longer the light will stay on at night. The rechargeable Ni-Cd battery must be allowed to fully charge to operate properly. Partially charging the battery on a consistent basis will drastically reduce the life of the battery.

Shady locations will not allow the battery to charge fully and will reduce the hours of nighttime light. NOTE: The rechargeable Ni-Cd battery must be allowed to fully charge to operate properly. Partially charging the battery on a consistent basis will drastically reduce the life of the battery. The selected location should not be near a nighttime light source such as a porch light or street light, as these might keep the solar lights from automatically turning on. The solar lights should not be placed closer than 5 feet from one another. This could cause the solar lights to flicker from the adjacent light source. 2 INSTR_822-2507 Trad Tier.qxd 12/23/03 9:31 AM Page 4 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SOLAR LIGHT. SAVE THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. Step 1 Attach the ground stake to a ground stake tip by screwing together. Push ground stake tip fully into the ground.
