Maintaining the device
Replacing the
rechargeable battery
Note: This work step requires a cross-head screw-
driver and a flat-nose pliers.
Note: Suitable batteries that comply with the
specifications listed under “Technical data” are
available in specialist shops.
Replace the battery 20 if after a certain
amount of time, the light duration diminishes
noticeably despite good exposure to sunlight.
Only use rechargeable batteries of the right
size and of the recommended type (see section
“Technical data”).
Replace the rechargeable battery as indicated
in Figure G.
Slide the AUTO / OFF switch 4 into the OFF
position.
Use the screwdriver to remove the screws from
the back side of the main station 3 . Remove
the front of the main station.
Use the screwdriver to remove the 4 screws of
the 2 fastening brackets and remove the fasten-
ing brackets.
Note: The clamps for the rechargeable batter-
ies are fitted with plug connectors. The brown
cable is connected to the positive terminal of
the rechargeable battery (marked in red on the
battery) and the black cable to the minus termi-
nal (marked in black on the battery).
Use the flat-nosed pliers to pull out the plug
connector. When so doing, pull on the plug
connectors and not on the cable.
Reinsert the new battery in the same way you
have removed the old.
Use the screws to re-fasten the fastening brack-
ets and the front of the main station.
Cleaning and storage
Slide the AUTO / OFF switch 4 into the OFF
position if you will not be using the spotlight
and want to store it.
Charge the rechargeable batteries 20 every
3 months to prevent their destruction due to
deep discharge (see section “Charging the
rechargeable batteries”). Lead gel rechargeable
batteries have a high self-discharge rate.
Check the motion detector 6 and the solar
cell 13 for dirt regularly. If dirt or is present,
remove it to guarantee flawless function of the
spotlight.
Especially during the winter, keep the device
free from snow and ice.
Clean the spotlight with a lint-free, slightly moist
cloth and mild cleaning agent.
