Is there motion in the detection zone?
Make sure the sensor is not picking up moving
objects such as trees, traffic, etc.
TEST FOR YOURSELF
Cover the sensor lens with cardboard to pre-
vent sensor from detecting motion. If the lights
stay off, something in the detection zone is
triggering the sensor.
If this is the case, reduce the sensitivity.
Reposition motion sensor.
*If the lights stay on with sensor lens covered,
contact customer service.

If there is no motion, then the unit may be in the
override mode.

AUTO mode.
*If the lights continue to stay on, contact
