HOW YOUR HOME SECURITY SOLAR POWERED,
MOTION ACTIVATED LIGHTING SYSTEM WORKS
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING
YOUR SOLAR LIGHT. SAVE THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
During the day, the solar panel converts sunlight
into electricity and recharges the battery. At night,
the light turns on automatically when it detects
motion using the electricity stored during that day.
The number of activations per night are dependent
on your geographical location, weather conditions
and seasonal lighting availability.
Solar light does not receive as much direct
sunlight in winter months. Therefore, the number
of activations per night will be reduced
during winter.

BEFORE FIRST USE – After installing the main housing and
solar panel, leave the switch in the “OFF” position and
charge in FULL, DIRECT SUNLIGHT for THREE FULL DAYS.
Then turn the switch to the “AUTO” position. The light will
turn on automatically at night when it detects motion.
The Home Security Solar Powered, Motion Activated Lighting
System is designed to turn on automatically at night when a
person enters the detection zone. The light will stay on as
long as the motion detector senses motion in the zone. The
light will turn of in approximately 90 seconds after the
person leaves the detection zone or stops moving.
Detection Zone
Contains lead-acid (Pb)
battery. Battery must be
recycled or disposed of
properly.

Step 1
Select a location and attach the main housing
where you want to detect persons or objects
moving at night. Ideal places are patios, side
doors, garages and pool area. Mount the main
housing 6 to 8 feet above ground on a solid
surface for best motion detection and light
distribution.
NOTE: Do not place the main housing in high
traffic areas. Doing so will discharge the
battery quickly and unit will shut down
until it is recharged by the sun. Aim the
motion detector away from streets, busy
walk areas, trees and bushes.
Step 2
To attach the mounting bracket, use the
mounting template in this manual (pg 21) to
pre-drill holes. Install the bracket using the
three screws provided.

Step 3
Slide the main housing onto the mounting
bracket.
Step 4
Firmly plug the solar panel cord into the
main housing through mounting bracket.
Then twist the plug counter-clockwise to
lock into position.
Step 5
Select a location within 15 feet from the
main housing to mount the solar panel.
Mount the solar panel module in a sunny
location where it will receive FULL, DIRECT
SUNLIGHT for several hours each day.
NOTE: Shaded areas will not allow the solar
panel to fully charge the battery. This
will drastically reduce the number of
activations per night.
Step 6
Aim the solar panel toward the south, facing
upward at about 45° angle. The adjustable
base allows mounting on most vertical,
horizontal or sloping surfaces such as a
wall, post or roof. Excess cord can be
tucked under the panel securely.

Step 7
Point the floodlight in the desired direction.
You may want to adjust the floodlight after
letting the unit operate for a few nights.
Step 8
Position the detector head in the direction you
want to cover. Never aim the motion detector
head directly at the sun or above a 90° angle
(horizontal level). Do not rotate the head more
than 360°.
The motion detector covers an area of 130°
and a maximum range of approximately 75 feet
unless its view is blocked by a stationary
object such as a building or tree. The higher
the motion detector is mounted, the greater the
effective range. The motion detector is most
sensitive to persons or warm objects moving
across its detection zone, rather than toward or
away from it.

Step 1
After installing your light, leave the switch in
the “OFF” position and charge in FULL,
DIRECT SUNLIGHT for THREE FULL SUNNY
DAYS.
Step 2
After allowing the battery to fully charge, the
motion detector can be adjusted and tested.
Point the motion detector head down 15°
from horizontal level.
Step 3
Rotate the switch to “TEST” position. Turn
the range knob all the way to the minimum
setting (counter-clockwise). The light will
come on for a few seconds, then turn off.
Step 4
Wait one minute for the circuit to stabilize,
then walk slowly across the detection zone.
The light will turn on as soon as your
presence is detected. The light will turn off
in approximately 10 seconds after motion
stops or you leave the detection zone.
Adjust the detector head up or down, left or
right, in small increments as necessary.
Increase the range by turning the knob
clockwise a little at a time and only if
necessary. Most applications work best at
the lower range setting.

Step 5
Slide the switch to “AUTO” position. The light
may come on for a few seconds. This is
normal. After dark, test your adjustment by
walking slowly across the detection zone. The
light will turn on when your presence is
detected and will stay on as long there is
motion in the detection zone. The light will turn
off in approximately 90 seconds after you stop
moving or leave the detection zone. If
additional adjustments are required, it is
recommended that they be made in the test
mode during the following day when the
switches are easily visible.
NOTE: Remember to switch to “TEST” for
daytime testing and switch back to “AUTO”
for nighttime operation. The motion
detector has a built-in photocell sensor
that prevents daytime operation in the
“AUTO” position.

Solar security 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 the battery:
• Store at room temperature in a dry location.
• Turn the switch to “OFF” position. Never store unit with switch in
“AUTO” or “TEST” positions. This will damage the battery and it will not
recharge.
• Store light and solar panel where it can receive some sunlight or
room light each day. The battery needs light to maintain a charge
during storage.
• During prolonged storage, unit must be fully charged once every four
months or remove the battery and replace with a new rechargeable
battery when ready for use. You may need to replace the battery after
prolonged storage.
• Do not store the unit in a box, or a dark room without a source of light
on the solar panel. This will damage the battery and prevent its ability
to hold a charge.
• For best performance, do not store for prolonged periods.
Storage Tips
Cleaning
It is important that the solar panel is kept free of dirt and debris. A dirty
solar panel will not allow the battery to fully charge. This will shorten the life
of the battery and cause the light to malfunction. Clean regularly with a
dampened cloth or paper towel.
If your security light blinks on and off:
• Direct lamps away from detector or reposition detector.
• Remove heat sources located near or under detector.
• Direct detector away from streets or active sidewalks.

If your security light do not turn on at night:
• Switch is in the “OFF” Position. When the switch is in the “OFF”
position, light will not turn on automatically. Move switch to the
“AUTO” position and check for normal operation after dark.
• Make sure the solar panel cord is plugged firmly into main housing.
The battery will not charge if this connection is loose.
• Battery is not fully charged or needs replacement:
a. Make sure 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 light must
have direct sunlight every day to fully charge the battery. If the light
does not receive enough sunlight one day, it will recharge the next
sunny day and resume normal operation.
c. Check the battery on a voltage meter to ensure that battery is
charged to a full 6-volts. An electronics store will usually check
batteries at no charge. Battery should be replaced periodically
throughout the year, especially after winter months.
d. Diminishing light or gradual decrease in number of activations
indicate a dying battery that requires replacement. Replacement
battery may be purchased from The Brinkmann Corporation
Customer Service Department by calling 800-468-5252.
• Loose or burned out bulb. Bulb can become loose over time. Check and
tighten the bulb periodically. If the bulb has burned out, a replacement
can be easily installed. Replacement bulb may be purchased from The
Brinkmann Corporation Customer Service Department by calling 800-
468-5252.
• Dirty Solar Panel. A dirty solar panel will not allow the battery to fully
charge. This will shorten the life of the battery and cause the light to
malfunction. Clean regularly with a dampened cloth or paper towel.
