Setting up the light
Insert the assembled solar light far enough into
the ground (lawn, flower bed) for it to be stable.
Make sure you keep proper footing and balance
at all times. Do not use any force when assem-
bling or setting-up the product, e.g. hammer
blows. This will damage the product. In order
to achieve the best result, set the solar garden
lamp up in a place where the solar cell will get
direct sunlight for as long as possible.
Make sure that the solar cell is not influenced
by any other source of light such as yard or
street lighting as otherwise the light will not come
on in twilight.
The light automatically switches on in twilight
conditions and off again when normal outdoor
lighting conditions return.
Replacing the
rechargeable battery
The battery should be replaced every 12 months to
ensure optimum performance.
1. Separate the solar cell housing

by moving it anti-clockwise (see Fig. A).

Switch off the lamp with the ON / OFF switch
2. For HG00163A / C: Open the battery com-
partment lid of the solar cell housing.
For HG00163D: Loosen the fastening screws
by using a small cross head screwdriver and

3. Exchange the old rechargeable battery
new one, ensure that you do not damage the
wiring. Take care to the correct polarity, when
inserting the new rechargeable battery. The po-
larity is indicated in the battery compartment.
The new rechargeable battery has to have the
same technical data like the old one.
4. For HG00163D: Now again fasten the bat-
tery compartment lid

Charging the
rechargeable battery
Note that the solar garden light must be switched
on when the battery is charging.
The charging time of the battery when the solar cell
is used depends on the intensity of the sunlight and
the angle of incidence of the light on the solar cell.
Place the solar cell as perpendicular as possible to
the angle of incidence of the light. In this way you
will receive the highest light levels.
Maintenance and care
The light-emitting diodes cannot be replaced.
The solar lamp is maintenance-free, except for any
necessary change of battery.
Clean the solar lamp regularly with a dry, lint-
free cloth. Use a slightly dampened cloth to
.
remove more stubborn dirt.
Troubleshooting
Note: This appliance has delicate electronic com-
ponents. This means that if it is placed near an object
that transmits radio signals, it could cause interfer-
ence. If you notice that the device is malfunctioning,
remove any sources of interference from the area
of the device.
Note: Electrostatic discharges may cause device
to malfunction. In the event of such malfunctions,
remove the batteries briefly and reinsert them.
