HOW YOUR MISSION 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 automatically 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.
