IMPORTANT: The EPA Certified RBRC
®
Battery Recycling Seal on the nickel-
cadmium (Ni-Cd) battery contained in our
product indicates The Brinkmann Corporation
is voluntarily participating in an industry
program to collect and recycle these batteries
at the end of their useful life, when taken out
of service in the United States or Canada.
The RBRC
®
program provides a convenient
alternative to placing used Ni-Cd batteries
into the trash or the municipal waste stream,
which may be illegal in your area. Please call
1-800-8-BATTERY™ for information on Ni-Cd
battery recycling and disposal
bans/restrictions in your area. The Brinkmann
Corporation’s involvement in this program is
part of our commitment to preserving our
environment and conserving our natural
resources.
During the day, the solar panel converts
sunlight into electricity and recharges the
battery. At night, the light turns on automati-
cally using the electricity stored during that
day.
The number of hours the light will stay on is
dependent on your geographical location,
weather conditions and seasonal lighting
availability.
Solar lights do not receive as much direct
sunlight in winter months. Therefore, the
number of hours the light will stay on will be
reduced during winter.
BEFORE FIRST USE – Pull out to remove the clear plastic strip with
orange sticker in the light fixture to charge batteries.
Your new solar light’s rechargeable Ni-Cd battery is fully charged and
ready for use. Install the solar light in direct sunlight. For optimum
performance, it is best to charge the solar light for a FULL, SUNNY DAY.
The light will turn on automatically at night. The Ni-Cd rechargeable
battery provides increased brightness and stays on longer as it cycles
over time (days and nights of charging and discharging). The more direct
sunlight that the light receives during the day, the brighter and longer the
light will stay on at night.
The rechargeable Ni-Cd battery must be allowed to fully charge to
operate properly. Partially charging the battery on a consistent basis will
drastically reduce the life of the battery.
