How do I clean the solar panel?

Can I replace the batteries?

What if my lights aren't working after a short period?

Check the battery connections, make sure the solar panel is clean, and ensure the lights are receiving adequate sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Lights are not turning on at night.

Ensure the lights have received sufficient sunlight during the day. Check that the on/off switch is in the 'on' position and that the solar panel is clean.

Lights are dim or not as bright.

Rechargeable batteries may need replacing. Clean the solar panel to ensure maximum light absorption. Check for any obstructions blocking sunlight.

Lights are not staying on for a long time.

The duration of the light output is determined by the amount of exposure the solar panel receives during the day. Check the season and sunlight exposure.
