Solar lights can be left outside year round, even
in cold weather. However, if you wish to store
your light indoors for more than two or three
days, follow these steps to prevent damage to
rechargeable batteries:
• Store at room temperature in a dry location.
• Store solar light where it can receive some
sunlight or room light each day. The battery
needs light to maintain a charge during
storage.
• During prolonged storage, units must be
fully discharged and charged once every
month or remove batteries and replace with
new Ni-Cd rechargeable batteries when
ready for use. Check and replace batteries
periodically throughout the year.
• Do not store solar lights in a box, or a dark
room without a source of light on the solar
panel. This will damage the batteries and
prevent their ability to hold a charge.
• For best performance, do not store for
prolonged periods.
Storage Tips
If your solar light does not turn on at night, it
may be caused by one the following conditions:
• Battery is not fully charged or needs
replacement:
a. Make sure your light is located in an
area where the solar panel gets the
maximum amount of FULL, DIRECT
SUNLIGHT every day.
b. If the weather has been cloudy or
overcast during the day, the battery will
not be recharged for operation at night.
The solar light must have direct
sunlight every day to fully charge the
battery. If the solar light does not
receive enough sunlight one day, it will
recharge the next sunny day and
resume normal operation.
