Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the lights is straightforward: insert 3 x AA batteries into the weatherproof battery box, ensuring the polarities align correctly with the markings inside the compartment. Once the batteries are inserted, switch the unit to the 'timer' mode. The lights will illuminate for 6 hours, shut off for 18 hours, and repeat this cycle daily. To preserve the longevity of the stars, avoid pulling the wire too tight, as this can stress the LED connection points. When storing, wind the wire loosely around a piece of cardboard to prevent tangles.
