Problem Possible Cause Solution
The lights stay on
continuously.
Ƒ The motion sensor may be picking up a
heat source, such as an air vent, dryer
vent, or brightly painted, heat-reective
surface.
Ƒ Decrease the “SENS” setting or
reposition the motion sensor.
Ƒ The motion sensor is in manual mode. Ƒ Switch the motion sensor to
auto. See Using manual mode
on page 9.
Ƒ The light xture is wired through a
dimmer or timer.
Ƒ Do not use a dimmer or timer to
control the light xture. Replace
the dimmer or timer with a
standard on/off wall switch.
Ƒ The light xture is on the same circuit
as a motor, transformer, or uorescent
bulb.
Ƒ Install the light xture on
a circuit without motors,
transformers, or uorescent
bulbs.
The lights ash on and off. Ƒ Heat or light from the lamp heads may
be turning the motion sensor on and
off.
Ƒ Reposition the lamp heads
away from the motion sensor.
Ƒ Heat is being reected from other
objects and may be turning the motion
sensor on and off.
Ƒ Decrease the “SENS” setting or
reposition the motion sensor.
Ƒ The motion sensor is in “TEST” mode
and warming up.
Ƒ While in “TEST” mode, the light
only stays on for 5 seconds. Set
the “ON-TIME” switch to 1, 5, or
20 minutes.
The lights ash once then
stay off in manual mode.
The motion sensor is detecting light from
the lamp heads.
Reposition the lamp heads to keep
the area below the motion sensor
relatively dark.
Light will not come on when
power is turned off.
Ƒ The outside temperature is either too
hot or cold for the lithium battery to
operate safely.
Ƒ When the outside temperature
is in a safe range the lithium
battery will work correctly.
Ƒ The lithium battery charge is too low
(the red LED on the sensor continually
ashes).
Ƒ When the lithium battery has
been charged to a safe level,
the light will work correctly.
Ƒ The lithium battery is no longer able to
hold a charge.
Ƒ If the battery will not charge
after 7 days (with the light
switch in the ON position),
then replace the battery with a
Li-ion, 18650-2000mAh, 3.7V
7.4wh battery with the correct
connector.
