HOW YOUR VICTORIAN™

SOLAR-POWERED L.E.D. LIGHT WORKS

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SOLAR LIGHT. SAVE THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

IMPORTANT: The EPA Certified RBRC® Battery Recycling Seal on the nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery contained in our product indicates The Brinkmann Corporation is voluntarily participating in an industry program to collect and recycle these batteries at the end of their useful life, when taken out of service in the United States or Canada. The RBRC® program provides a convenient alternative to placing used Ni-Cd batteries into the trash or the municipal waste stream, which may be illegal in your area. Please call

1-800-8-BATTERY™ for information on Ni-Cd battery recycling and disposal bans/restrictions in your area. The Brinkmann Corporation’s involvement in this program is part of our commitment to preserving our environment and conserving our natural resources.

During the day, the solar panel converts sunlight into electricity and recharges the battery. At night, the light turns on automatically using the electricity stored during that day.

The number of hours the light will stay on is dependent on your geographical location, weather conditions and seasonal lighting availability.

Solar lights do not receive as much direct sunlight in winter months. Therefore, the number of hours the light will stay on will be reduced during winter.

To maximize run time, the light should be positioned so that the photo cell sensor is facing North (see illustration). This will ensures that the solar panels are aligned in an East/West orientation to receive maximum sunlight.

BEFORE FIRST USE – Pull out to remove the clear plastic strip with orange sticker in the light fixture to charge battery.

Install your Victorian solar light in direct sunlight and charge for 10-12 FULL, SUNNY DAYS. The light will turn on automatically at night. Allow at least 10-12 cycles (i.e., 10-12 days and nights of charging and discharging) for the battery to charge to its full capacity.

The rechargeable Ni-Cd battery must be allowed to fully charge to operate properly. Partially charging the battery on a consistent basis will drastically reduce the life of the battery.
