TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
Light will not switch on
when there is movement
in the detection area.
Light switches on during
the day.
Light switches on for no
apparent reason.
Light quickly flashes on
and off.
Light is not as bright as
normal.
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
• Ensure that the power switch on the main body has been
turned to the ON position.
• Ensure that the motion sensor has been positioned to face
oncoming movement.
• Ensure that the battery has been fully charged in direct
sunlight for 3 sunny days. Refer to the "Before First Use of
Your Solar Security Light" section on page 4.
• Check to see that the solar panel is facing south so that it
receives direct sunlight for most of the day, enabling the
battery to fully charge.
• Check to see that the LUX control has not been set too
far towards ( ). Setting the LUX control too far towards ( )
will cause the Solar Security Light to turn on only in
complete darkness.
• Check to see that the motion sensor is not near night time light
sources such as street lights.
• The LUX control may be set too far towards the (
• Reposition the motion sensor.
• If you have just switched the light to ON, it will immediately
perform a "test activation" regardless of lighting or motion
conditions. This "test activation" will last roughly 30 seconds.
Afterwards the light will function normally.
• The SENS control may be set too far towards the (+) position.
• Moving trees, traffic, pets or birds may be getting in the area
of detection. This may be unavoidable, however the sensor
could be redirected to a height where this is less likely to
occur.
• If there are reflective objects in the detection area such as
windows, water, or white walls, you may need to redirect or
possibly reposition the motion sensor.
• Test the motion sensor by covering it completely with
cardboard and waiting several minutes to make sure it does
not detect motion. If the light still switches on, please contact
MAXSA for further assistance.
• If you have just switched the light to ON, it will immediately
perform a "test activation" regardless of lighting or motion
conditions. This "test activation" will last roughly 30 seconds.
Afterwards the light will function normally
• Battery charge may be low. Turn the power switch to the
OFF position and charge the battery for three (3) sunny days
with the solar panel placed in direct sunlight, ideally facing
the Southern sky.
• Move the LUX control more to the (
