WARNING! Make sure the Power Button at the back of the Lamp Housing (5) is in its
“OFF” position before making any adjustments to the Spotlight. See Figure 1.
Decide where you want to place the Solar Spotlight. Choose a location that receives full,
direct sunlight a minimum of six hours a day. The location should not be near nighttime
light sources such as porch lights or streetlights as this may trigger the lights to turn off or
flicker.

The Solar Spotlight will need to charge for at least 6 hours before using it for the first
time.
The light is powered by two “AA” batteries. For directions on how to replace the batteries,
refer to the Replacing the Batteries section on the following page.

note: During the day, the Solar Panel converts sunlight into electricity, recharging the
batteries. The amount of light the Solar Panel receives depends on placement of
the Solar Spotlight, geographic location and weather. If the weather is cloudy and
the panel did not receive a full charge, the Solar Spotlight may not achieve the full
hours of operating time. It will catch up on its own after two to three days of full
sun.
inserting the ground stake (11):
1.
Insert the Connecting Shaft Screw (7) into the hole on the Connecting Shaft (6).
Slide the Connecting Shaft 2 (9) onto the Shaft Screw (7) so that Connecting Shaft
(6) and Connecting Shaft 2 (9) are fitted together. Thread on Nut (10) to secure in
place.
2.
3.
Insert Ground Stake (11) up into the Connecting Shaft 2 (9).
warning: Before inserting the Solar Spotlight into the ground, make certain to
choose an area where there are no underground pipes, cables or other obstructions.
Make certain that the ground is soft enough to accept the Ground Stake (11). Gently
insert the Ground Stake (11) into the ground making certain that it is in solid. Make
certain that the Stake is completely inserted into the ground to assure full stability
for the Solar Spotlight.
4.
The Lamp Housing (5) rotates up and down to obtain the best lighting situation.
The Solar Panel (1) pivots on a ball and can be set to a number of different angles
to obtain the best angle for solar power.
