Anleitung SO 6-BS
Connecting the lamp
Plug the lead from the solar module in the solar
charging socket.
As soon as the solar module begins to supply
enough current, the green LED „Charge" lights up
and the storage battery is charged. Charging time
depends on the amount of sunlight. In full sunlight
the supplied solar module takes about 10 hours to
fully charge the battery.
The red LED „Full" lights up when the battery is fully
charged. A fully charged battery can produce about 4
hours of light.
Caution! Never charge the storage battery
simultaneously from the mains and the solar
module! The built-in electronics may be
destroyed.

7. Transport clip
To prevent the lamp from being switched on
accidentally in transit, a clip is fitted over the ON/OFF
switch. Remove this clip before using for the first
time.
8. Replacing the fuse
Each time before changing a fuse, be sure to
disconnect the lamp from the mains or the solar
module.
A fuse is fitted to the bottom of the lamp in order to
protect the battery from overloading. Always replace
the fuse with one of identical rating (1A slow).

9. Replacing the fluorescent tube
To replace a defective fluorescent tube, switch off
the lamp and then disconnect it from the mains or the
solar module. Wait approx. 5 to 10 minutes for the
tube to cool before replacing it. Undo the fixing screw
in the transparent guard hood and remove the hood.
Twist the tube through 90° and take it out. Install the
new tube in reverse order. Then refit the guard hood
and fasten it in position with the fixing screw.
10. Faults
If the lamp fails to work, check the following points:
Is the battery fully charged?
Use the power cable to connect the lamp to a mains
socket-outlet. The green LED „Charge" should light
up. If it does not, check the fuse at the bottom of the
lamp (see the section „Replacing the fuse").
11. Additional points to note
The lamp is designed for lighting jobs in the private
sector.
Protect the lamp from moisture.
Do not expose the lamp to the rain.
When the lamp is not being used it should be stored
in a frost-proof and dry room. Before opening the
lamp, be sure to pull out the mains plug or
disconnect the lamp from the solar module.
The solar module is weather-resistant and winter-
proof.
