Technical Data; Care And Cleaning - Conrad Electronic Polarlite Iron-Ice Mode D'emploi

Important notes
• 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 sufficient solar radiation (especially in
winter) can lower the charge state of the battery, thus not allowing long lit periods. The
rechargeable battery stores less energy during the day than it consumes at night. Thus, the
lighting duration is inevitably reduced. This may damage the battery as a result of it becoming
completely discharged. Therefore, remove the battery from the product in due time.
• Keep the lamp head clean. Dust and dirt reduce the efficiency of the solar module, resulting
in a lower charging current.
• Cold temperatures have a negative impact on the battery life (the light stays on for a shorter
period at night). To prolong the lifespan of the product, store it in a dry, warm room during the
winter (or when you are not going to use it for an extended period). To do this, remove the
battery from the product.
• You can charge the battery with a battery charger before inserting it into the product. Always
follow the instructions in this manual when removing/replacing the rechargeable battery.
Removing/changing the battery
Change the battery as soon as the light ON time is significantly reduced, even
though the battery has sufficiently charged during the day.
Ensure that no liquids get into the lamp head when changing the battery.
• Lift the lamp head with glass cover out of the rectangular metal housing to remove it.
• Set the on/off switch to OFF.
• Remove the battery compartment cover. Remove the rechargeable battery and replace it with
an identical battery (see technical data). Pay attention to correct polarity (+/-).
Never use a disposable non-rechargeable battery.
• Proceed in reverse order to assemble the product again.
• Set the on/off switch to ON.

Care and Cleaning

• Never use aggressive cleaning agents or chemical solutions as the surface of the housing
could be damaged (discolouration).
• Further, do not point water jets (e.g. from a high-pressure cleaner) at the light, since this could
damage the gaskets.
• The product does not require maintenance except for occasional cleaning.
• Allow the product to cool down sufficiently before cleaning.
• Use a clean, soft and dry cloth to clean the product. To remove stubborn dirt, moisten the
cloth slightly with lukewarm water.
• Do not press too hard on the housing as this can lead to scratch marks.
Disposal
a) Product
Electronic devices are recyclable waste and must not be disposed of in the
household waste. Always dispose of the product according to the relevant statutory
regulations.
Remove the rechargeable battery and dispose of it separately from the product.
b) Batteries
You are required by law to return all used batteries (Battery Directive). Batteries
must not be placed in household waste.
Batteries containing hazardous substances are labelled with this symbol to indicate
that disposal in household waste is forbidden. The abbreviations for heavy metals
in batteries are: Cd = Cadmium, Hg = Mercury, Pb = Lead (indicated on the battery,
e.g. below the trash icon on the left).
Used batteries can be returned to local collection points, our stores or battery retailers.
You thus fulfil your statutory obligations and contribute to the protection of the environment.
