TEST AND ADJUSTMENT

NOTE: Sensor has a 30 second warm up period before it will detect motion. When switching modes wait 30 seconds.

1.Slide the sensor switch to the TEST (center) posi- tion.

2.Place the RANGE adjustment in the medium position (halfway between MIN and MAX position).

4.Walk through the coverage area noting when the lights turn on. Gently move the sensor head up, down, or sideways to change the coverage area. Note: Wait 5 to 10 seconds after light turns off to retest.

Adjustment of Coverage Area

The sensor detects “motion” by the movement of heat (body heat) across the coverage area.However, following are examples of objects that also produce heat and can cause the sensor to false trigger:

Pools of Water

Air Conditioners

Dryer Vents

Fenced-In Animals

Heating Vents

Automobile Traffic

If you suspect that a heat source of this type is falsely triggering the sensor, try reducing the RANGE or aiming the sensor away from the heat source in question.

Note: The detector is less sensitive to motion directly towards it and more sensitive to across motion.

5.Increase RANGE only as needed. A larger RANGE setting may cause false triggering and reduce battery life.

6.Secure the sensor into position by tightening the clamp screw. Do not overtighten the screw.

7.After dark, adjust the light to cover desired area.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

Periodically clean the solar panel with a soft cloth and warm water.Do not hose spray.Keep the collector clear of snow and leaves. Make sure trees and other objects do not block sunlight from the panel.

If not to be used for several weeks, turn the unit OFF. Store it with the panel connected and where the panel can gather sunlight.

Solar collection is only effective in direct sunlight.Every hour the light is on requires a minimum of 16 hours of sunlight charging. Solar panels collect less than 10% of the sun’s energy. Light bulbs convert this energy to light at 5% efficiency.

Several days of use with overcast skies may discharge the battery.Because of the battery protection circuit, the light will not work until the battery is fully recharged.

This light is supplied with a 15 Watt, bi-pin, halogen bulb. For replacement, use Heath®/Zenith model SL- 7000-A1-A or equivalent. Note: Using a larger bulb will decrease battery life.
