Important
• The power of the solar panel varies according to the time
of year and depends on the duration and strength of the
sunlight. Long periods without sucient sunlight (especially
in winter) may lead to a shorter battery life (the rechargeable
battery stores less energy during the day than it consumes at
night). This may damage the battery as a result of it becoming
completely discharged. To avoid damaging the battery, turn the
lamp o during extended periods without sucient sunlight.
• Keep the solar panel clean. Dust and dirt reduce the eciency
of the solar panel, resulting in a lower charging current.
• During poor weather, you can remove the battery and charge it
with a suitable battery charger. Always follow the instructions in
this manual when removing/replacing the battery.
Replacing the battery
• Replace the battery when you notice a significant drop in the
battery life despite sucient charging.
• Unscrew the lid in an anticlockwise direction.
• Rotate the battery compartment cover on the back of the lid as
far as it will go.
• The battery compartment cover and the lid are connected with
cables. To avoid damaging the cables, exercise caution when
removing the battery compartment cover.
• Insert a new battery of the correct size and type (see "Technical
Data") into the battery compartment. Ensure that the battery is
inserted in the correct polarity ("+" = positive; "-" = negative).
• Place the light chain inside the lantern.
• Reassemble the lantern in the reverse order.
Care and cleaning
• Before cleaning the product, turn o the lamp and let it cool
down suciently.
• Use a clean, dry, lint-free cloth to clean the product. To remove
stubborn dirt, moisten the cloth slightly with lukewarm water.
• Do not press too hard on the solar panel, as this may damage
the interior components.
• Let the product dry out completely before using it again.
