HOW TO INSTALL YOUR SOLAR WEDGE LIGHT
The Solar Wedge Light can be mounted vertically or horizontally onto a solid surface,
using the supplied mounting bracket, wood/sheet metal screws, and anchors.
Remember it is best to face the panel south for direct sunlight exposure.

The included mounting bracket and screws can be used to mount the Solar Wedge Light
securely to a wall or other stable surface.

To install the mounting bracket with screws:

1. Remove the mounting bracket from the bottom of the Solar Wedge Light by inserting

the key into the keyhole and twisting the key counter-clockwise to the OPEN
position.

2. If you are mounting the bracket on a very hard surface, you may need to drill holes

for the screws first. The included screw anchors can be used for drywall, cement,
brick, or similar surfaces.

3. Align the mounting bracket and install the two screws using a Phillips screwdriver.

4. Place the Solar Wedge Light onto the mounting bracket.

5. Insert the key into the keyhole and twist the key clockwise to the LOCK position.

6. Remove the key and gently nudge the Solar Wedge Light to make sure that it is

securely mounted.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem

Light will not switch
on when there is
movement in the
detection area.

Light switches on for
no apparent reason.

Light quickly flashes
on and off.

Light is not as bright
as normal.

Ensure that the power switch on the main body has been turned to

the AUTO position.

Ensure that the motion sensor has been positioned to face

oncoming movement.

Ensure that the batteries have been fully charged in direct sunlight

for 3 sunny days - Refer to the "Before First Use of Your Solar
Wedge Light" section.

Check to see that the solar panel is facing south so that it receives

direct sunlight for most of the day, enabling the batteries to fully
charge.

Check to see that the solar panel is not near night time light

sources such as street lights.

The rechargeable batteries may need to be replaced.

Moving trees, traffic, pets or birds may be getting in the area of

detection. This may be unavoidable, however the sensor could be
redirected to a height where this is less likely to occur.

Heat sources such as air conditioners, vents, heater/dryer exhaust

outlets, barbecues, or other outside lighting may be falsely
activating the motion sensor. Try installing the Solar Wedge Light in
a different location.

If there are reflective objects in the detection area such as

windows, water, or white walls, you may need to redirect or
possibly reposition the motion sensor.

Test the motion sensor by covering it completely with cardboard

and waiting several minutes to make sure it does not detect motion.
If the light still switches on, please contact MAXSA for further
assistance.

Battery charge may be low. Turn the power switch to the OFF

position and charge the battery for three (3) sunny days, ensuring
the solar panel has been placed in direct sunlight.

The rechargeable batteries may need to be replaced.
