The accident prevention rules of the association of the industrial trade coope-
rative association for electric plants and working material are to be considered

3. Intended use
The solar lamp is designed for outdoor use. The integrated rechargeable
battery is charged via the solar cell in the lid of the lamp. The lamp is
automatically switched on at darkness and switched out at the break of dawn.
2 powerful white light emitting diodes (LEDs) are used as light source. Those
LEDs ensure a high luminosity with low power consumption. The light color
may be switched between a yellow ickering light (imitation of a candle) and a
7-color alternating light. This is done via a switch.
-- However, please note that the duration of illumination may be impaired
in case of insufcient solar irradiation onto the solar module or during the
winter months --
Note: In case of longer periods without solar irradiation, the accumulator won’t
be charged sufciently in order to ensure a permanent operational readiness.
But that doesn’t mean that the solar light is defective. Wait for the next
sunny days and the light will again work accordingly or charge the batteries in a
commercially available battery charger.
4. Putting into operation
1. Please carefully take all parts out of the package.
2. For safety sake, hold one hand onto the lid. This will avoid any damages
of the lid when opening the jar. Now open the clasp of the lid by pulling the
clamp forward (ill. 1).
3. Remove the clamp and open the lid of the canning jar (ill. 2).
4. Inside the lid you will nd a slide switch. The lamp is switched off in the
center position „OFF“. The yellow ickering light is activated in position
„ON2“ and the 7-color alternating light is activated in position „ON1“ (ill. 3).
5. Then close the lid and rmly press it onto the gasket. Now close the canning
jar with the clasp.
Attention: Do not apply force when opening and closing the lamp. Danger of
injury due to genuine glass!
The solar lamp is now activated.
Note: The duration of illumination is strongly dependent of the intensity and
duration of sunshine during the day. During the winter months, the duration of
illumination will generally be shorter. In case the light should not give light on the
rst evening, please wait for a sunny day.
5. Exchange of the rechargeable battery
1. For safety sake, hold one hand onto the lid (ill. 4). This will avoid any
damages of the lid when opening the jar. Now open the clasp of the lid by
pulling the clamp forward.
2. Remove the clamp and open the lid of the canning jar.
3. Put the slide switch into the center position.
4. Turn the reector anticlockwise and remove it carefully.
5. Unscrew the 3 screws with an appropriate screwdriver and carefully remove
the cover (ill. 5).
6. Take the used rechargeable battery out of the battery compartment and insert
a new accumulator with correct polarity (ill. 6). We recommend charging the
new accumulator in a charger before inserting it.
7. Now, re-assemble and close the lamp in reverse order.
Note: Used batteries or accumulators must be disposed of in a non-polluting
way and do not belong into the domestic waste. Your dealer is required by law
to take back old accumulators.

Rechargeable battery notes
- Rechargeable batteries should not be played with by children. Never leave rechar-
geable batteries lying around; they could be swallowed by children or pets.
- Rechargeable batteries must never be short-circuited, disassembled or thrown into
fire. This leads to a danger of explosion!
- Leaking or damaged rechargeable batteries can cause chemical burns when they
come into contact with skin. For this reason, please make use of suitable protective
gloves.
- Rechargeable batteries should only be replaced by structurally identical rechar-
geable batteries from the same manufacturer. Normal batteries must not be used
since these are not rechargeable.
- Make sure the rechargeable batteries are inserted with the correct polarity.
- For long periods of time of non-use (for example, storage), remove the inserted
rechargeable batteries to avoid damages via the leaking rechargeable batteries.
