For optimum light duration throughout the night, place solar light in a spot where it will receive the maximum amount of direct sunlight throughout the day, free from any obstacles and shade.
Make sure the solar panel is not going to be affected by any other light source at night; otherwise, the light will not turn on at dusk. NOTE: The unit will operate optimally after two full days of charging.
OPERATION
Turn the operation switch to the on position, and the solar light will automatically operate from dusk to dawn. (See Figure 1)
INSTALLATION
Screw each of the poles and the fixture together tightly. (See Figure 2)
Attach the stake to the unit by twisting it on to the bottom pole. (See Figure 2)
Insert the stake into the ground. Make sure you have

TROUBLESHOOTING
If solar-charged light does not come on at dusk, despite observance of all the instructions, try the following:
Make sure solar light is not affected by any other light source.
Ensure solar light is not affected by any shade during the day.
Make sure switch is in on position.
Check that batteries are installed correctly. NOTE: The performance of solar lamp will vary with time of year. It will deliver more light when it has a full day of direct sun rather than a day in overcast weather.
WINTER TIPS:For optimal performance, be sure to remove any snow or debris accumulation from the solar panel. A solar panel free of debris will charge the batteries much more efficiently.
