Safety Instructions
The warranty will be void in the event of damage caused by failure to observe
these safety instructions! We do not assume liability for any resulting dam-
age.
We do not assume any liability for material and personal damage caused by

• For safety and approval (CE) reasons, unauthorised conversion and/or modifi ca-
tion of the product are not permitted. Never dismantle the product.
• The product is not a toy and should be kept out of the reach of children!
• The product can be mounted either indoors (with suffi cient solar radiation on the
solar panel) or outdoors. The LED spotlight, the solar panel and the control unit are
protected according to IP56, the operator control unit according to IP44.
The product components, however, must not be operated in or under water. There-
fore, mount them in such a way that even during extended downpours they will not
lie in or under water (e.g. standing water, puddles, etc.).
• Attention, LED light:
Do not look directly into the LED light!
Do not look into the beam directly or with optical instruments!
• Do not leave the packing material lying around, as it can be a dangerous plaything
for children! Danger of suffocation!
General Notes about Batteries
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Install and use the product out of the reach of
children.
• Make sure that the rechargeable batteries are not shorted, opened, taken apart or thrown into
fi re. There is a risk of fi re and explosion!
• If rechargeable batteries are too old or spent, chemical reactions may occur which will dam-
age the appliance.
• If your skin comes into contact with leaking or damaged batteries, you may suffer burns. For
this reason you should use suitable protective gloves.

Installation

☞
The long connection cable allows an optimal positioning of the LED spotlight, the
solar panel, the control unit, and the operator control unit. Before fi xing fi rmly, check
whether the cable lengths are suffi cient for the intended mounting location.
For the use of this product, it is essential that the solar panel point ideally in the
direction of the sun. Only then can the rechargeable battery be suffi ciently charged.
With shade (e.g. trees) or with too little sunshine, e.g. in winter (no sunshine or
snow on the solar panel), the result is that the LED spotlight lights only with reduced
brightness (or not at all). It is also possible that the LED spotlight switches itself off
before the programmed switched-on period has run out.

Version 05/11
• Mount the solar panel in a suitable place.
Ideally, you should direct the solar panel with an angle of about 30° toward the south. Not
only does this increase the output of the solar panel, but also the rain running off washes
away dirt particles or leaves.
Connect the connection cable of the solar panel with the "Solar In" jack of the control unit.
• The LED spotlight can very easily be mounted by means of its retaining bracket. Direct the
LED spotlight as desired, e.g. to light an entrance area, a terrace, or something similar.
Connect the connection cable of the LED spotlight with the "Lamp DC 6V" jack of the control
unit.
• The control unit containing the rechargeable alkaline battery is to be screwed fast with the
eyelets on the edge of the housing. Never turn screws into the housing!
Due to the heavy weight of the control unit, a stable mounting is necessary.
If the control unit is mounted on the ground, it is imperative to ensure that it never lies in or
under water (e.g. if rain collects in a depression). The control unit is protected only according
to IP56 and therefore may not lie in or under water.
• The operator control unit with the 7-segment display must be hung on a screw or nail on the
wall via an opening on the back.
Connect the connection cable of the operator control unit with the third and last jack of the
control unit.
Getting Started, Operation
• Switch on the control unit; bring the on/off switch on the top of the unit to the position "I".
• Program the desired switched-on period (see below), if necessary.
• When the sunlight on the solar panel is reduced (twilight), the LED spotlight is activated with
suffi cient battery voltage for the selected switched-on period (1, 2, 3 or 4 hours, see below for
how to set) and then switches off automatically.
☞
• If you do not need the product, switch it off (bring the on/off switch on the top of the control
unit to the "O" position).
☞
Displaying battery charge and switched-on duration
• Briefl y press the left button on the operator control unit.
• In the display, the current battery voltage (e.g. "6.15" = 6.15 V) and the set switched-on time
(e.g. "1" = 1 hour) are now displayed alternately.
• Briefl y press the left button again to switch off the display. Alternatively, wait about 20 sec-
onds without pressing a button; then the display turns off automatically.
Important!
For mounting, screws, screw anchors and (if necessary) spacers suitable for the
surface are essential. These are not included.
Pay attention when drilling/tightening the screws that no power, gas or water pipes
are damaged!
When mounting, for example, the solar panel on a roof (such as a carport), make
sure that the water-tightness of the roof is maintained. Otherwise, water can leak in
and cause damage!
When connecting the sockets and jacks, make sure that the jack is fully and fi rmly in
the socket; otherwise water can leak in, which leads to corrosion.
Place the cables in a way so that nobody can fall over them. Do not drive over or
step on the cables. Fix the cables e.g. with cable fasteners.
Protect the cables against sharp edges; do not kink the cables.
If the charge is too low, the LEDs in the LED spotlight may not work with full bright-
ness or they are not activated, to prevent a heavy discharge.
Charging of the integrated rechargeable alkaline battery continues in both switch
positions.
