Technical speciﬁcations for rechargeable

battery

– Nanophosphate

high-power lithium-ion

rechargeable battery, cadmium-free LiFePO

– Can be recharged at any time without shortening

battery lifespan.

– Automatic recharging by solar panel.

– Can be recharged using charging adapter at

micro USB socket (5 V).

– Can be replaced by the manufacturer or

qualiﬁed electricians.

– Rechargeable battery capacity: 2500 mAh

– Max. lighting duration:

60 days at 20 switching operations a night.

– Micro USB charging socket: 5 V, 1 A max.,

can be used in all three programmes.

Recharging time depends on the site of installa-

tion (direct sunlight). Expect charging to take many

times longer in winter or on rainy days.

4. Installation

• Check all components for damage.

Do not use the product if the solar panel or

LED panel is damaged.

Operating reliability will be limited if the product is

used in adverse conditions (e.g. installed in shade

or behind glass, solar panel not facing the right

direction)

• Choose an appropriate site with plenty of sun-

light for installing the solar panel (facing south).

• Avoid shade from porches, overhanging roofs or

trees.

• Pay attention to detection reach (Ill. 4.1).

Combining the proﬁle elements gives you three

different mounting heights

• Assemble baseplate and proﬁle(s) to give you the

height you want (Ill. 4.2).

• loosely screw into place and then tighten screws

alternately on completing installation.

– Short proﬁle: 370 mm

– Long proﬁle: 550 mm

– Short + long proﬁle: 920 mm

• Mark drill holes (Ill. 4.3).

• Drill holes and ﬁt rawl plugs (Ill. 4.4).

• Screw baseplate to the standing surface

(Ill. 4.4).

• Remove light holder (Ill. 4.5).

• Make settings (Ill. 4.6).

➔ "5. Operation"

• Screw light holder to SensorLight (Ill. 4.7).

• Mount SensorLight on proﬁle (Ill. 4.8).

• Aim LED panel with motion detector in the right

• direction (Ill. 3.4).

• Aim solar panel to get the strongest sunlight for

the longest time possible (Ill. 3.4).

• Check compass (for south-facing position)

(Ill. 3.4).

5. Operation

Before using for the ﬁrst time

• Activate light by setting the programme selector

switch to P2.

The light stays in test mode for one minute

before it starts to work in programme P2.

Test mode

During the test sequence the light works in

daytime mode.

On detecting movement, the light switches ON

for 1 minute with a stay-ON time of 10 sec. irre-

spectively of light-level setting. The programme

is automatically activated after this time elapses.

The red LED stays ON all the time in test mode.

Setting the chosen operating mode by

programme selector switch

– P0: OFF (factory setting).

Loads (LED panel and sensor) are deactivated.

– P1: Sensor mode.

Light only switches ON after receiving a signal

from the motion detector.

– P2: Sensor mode with basic light level.

Light switches ON after receiving a signal from

the motion detector.

Light permanently ON in the morning and

evening hours at reduced basic light level.

Stay-ON time and brightness

– Stay-ON time is determined when the light is

used for the ﬁrst time.

– During the ﬁrst night, basic lighting is switched

OFF in the morning in programme 2.

Light does not switch ON

– Battery capacity too low.

•ChargebatterywithmicroUSBcharging 

adapter (not included).

– Open or short circuit.

• Check connections.

– Programme selector switch set to P0.

• Set programme selector switch to P1 or P2.

– Detection zone not correctly adjusted.

• Check detection zone.

Light does not switch OFF

– Continued movement within the detection zone.

• Check detection zone.

Light switches ON when it should not

– Uncontrolled movement in the detection zone:

– Wind is moving trees and bushes.

– Cars in the street being detected.

– Sudden temperature changes due to weather

(wind, rain, snow) or air expelled from fans,

open windows.

• Check detection zone.

– Light is swaying (moving) due to gusts of wind or

heavy rain.

• Mount light on a ﬁrm surface.

Battery not charging

– Solar panel dirty.

• Clean solar panel with a soft cloth and mild

detergent.

– Solar panel not installed in the best place.

• Check site of installation (as much direct

sunlight as possible).

– It may no longer be possible to recharge the

battery after many years of use.

• Get rechargeable battery changed

(replacement XSolar battery, 3.3 V 2.5 AH,

EAN 007841006488).

• Please send the product well-packed to your

nearest service station. The rechargeable

battery must only be replaced by the manu-

facturer or qualiﬁed electricians.

7. Cleaning and Maintenance

The product requires no maintenance.

Regularly checking the product for damage can

prolong its lifespan.

Removing dirt can help to make the product work

longer.

– Stay-ON time and brightness can be automati-

cally matched to ambient conditions, e.g. stay-

ON time is longer in summer than it is in winter.

– Basic lighting level provides night-time illumina-

tion at approx. 3% light output. Light is switched

to maximum output when movement is identiﬁed

in the detection zone. The light then returns to

basic lighting level (approx. 3%).

The period basic lighting is provided for is

matched to ambient conditions. Using basic

lighting reduces light availability. If it is not need-

ed, it is recommended to switch it OFF (P1) to

ensure lighting availability in less sunny periods.

Charging the battery manually

The red LED in the motion detector ﬂashes if

battery capacity is too low (e.g. in poor weather).

The battery can be recharged with a standard

micro USB charging adapter (not included). Battery

recharging can take up to 6 hours.

Risk of damage to property from penetrating

moisture

When open, the micro USB charging socket (E) is

not protected from the ingress of water.

• Only recharge batteries in a dry room.

• Connect micro USB charging adapter.

– Red LED ﬂashes: charging in progress

The LED may take up to 10 minutes to start

ﬂashing if the battery has run down to very

low level.

– Red LED shows: battery is fully charged.

• Remove micro USB charging adapter.

– Red LED goes out.

Risk of damage to property when light is not

in use

If the light is not used for a prolonged period

(e.g. in storage), the battery may suffer irreparable

damage from exhaustive discharge.

• Set programme selector switch to P0.

• The battery must be on full charge before taking

the light out of service.

• Regularly charge the battery while the light is

not in use.
