HOW YOUR MINI POST LIGHT™

SOLAR-POWERED L.E.D. LIGHTS WORK

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING YOUR SOLAR LIGHT.

SAVE THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

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.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Inspect contents of the box to ensure all parts are included and undamaged.

Select a location with FULL, DIRECT

SUNLIGHT. Shady locations will not allow

the battery to charge fully and will reduce

the hours of nighttime light.

NOTE: 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.

The selected location should not be near a

nighttime light source such as a porch

light or street light, as these might keep

the solar lights from automatically turning

on. The solar lights should not be placed

closer than 5 feet from one another. This

could cause the solar lights to flicker from

the adjacent light source.

INSTR-minipost-stake.qxd 1/8/04 3:16 PM Page 3

Step 1

Attach the ground stake to a pointed

connector. Push approximately 3" of the

ground stake into the ground.

NOTE: Ground can be softened by soaking

area with water first.

Step 2

Insert light head into ground stake. The

photocell light sensor should point

away from other nighttime light

sources.

Step 3

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.

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.

resources.

Changing Battery

Step 1

Remove lens from top housing by

turning lens clockwise.

Step 2

With top housing upside down (solar

panel facing down), push battery

compartment tab and lift off battery

compartment lid.

Step 3

Remove battery. Replace with new

Ni-Cd rechargeable battery.

Step 4

Replace battery compartment lid.

Step 5

Attach the lens by aligning the tabs

with the slots in top housing. Turn

counter-clockwise to lock in place.

NOTE: These lights utilize L.E.D. (Light

Emitting Diode) technology. There

are no bulbs to replace.

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.

Cleaning

INSTR-minipost-stake.qxd 1/8/04 3:16 PM Page 5

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.

c. Check and replace the battery periodically throughout the year,

especially after winter months. Replacement batteries may be

purchased from The Brinkmann Corporation Customer Service

Department by calling 1-800-468-5252.

Troubleshooting

Information

INSTR-minipost-stake.qxd 1/8/04 3:16 PM Page 6

• Clean snow and debris off the solar panel to allow battery to recharge.

• Check and replace battery periodically throughout the year, especially

after winter months.

Wintertime

Tips

• Other light sources: If your solar lights are located too close to a street

light, porch light or another solar light, it may not turn on automatically at

night. The built-in photocell light sensor is reacting to the other light

source. Eliminate the other light source or relocate your solar lights.

• 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.

After correcting the problem, check the light operation immediately after dark or

in a dark room. If the light will only operate for a short time, the battery needs

recharging.
