Bottom of Sensor
Avoid aiming the control at:
• Objects that change temperature rapidly, such
as
heating vents and air conditioners. These
heat sources could cause false triggering.
• Areas where
pets or traffic may trigger the control.
•
Nearby large, light-colored objects reflecting 
light may trigger the shut-off feature. Do not point 
other lights at the sensor.

180°
❒
Loosen the clamp screw
in the sensor ball joint and 
gently rotate the sensor.
❒
Walk through the cover-
age area noting where 
you are when the lights 
turn on (also, the LED will 
flash several times when 
motion is detected). Move 
the sensor head up, down, 
or sideways to change the 
coverage area. 
Keep the
sensor at least 1" (2.5 cm) 
away from the lamps.
❒
Adjust the RANGE as
needed. RANGE set too 
high may increase false 
triggering.
❒
Secure the sensor head 
by tightening the clamp 
screw. Do not overtighten the screw.
❒
Set the amount of TIME you want the lights to stay
on after motion is detected (1, 5, or 10 minutes).
Warning - Risk of fire. Do not aim the lamps 
at a combustible surface within 3 ft. (1 m).
