Solar Wall Mounted PIR Motion Sensor Lights
KASOLPIRWALSA / KASOLPIRWALBA
Quick Start Guide
These instructions describe the best operating methods to ensure a prolonged service life. Please read
these instructions carefully before operating your solar lights.
Using solar power and lithium battery technology, these lights are ideal for entryways, carports and other
areas where electricity may not be readily available.
During the day, the solar panel fitted on top of each light will charge the battery. At dusk, only LED will
activate automatically using the stored energy from the sun. Using PIR (passive infrared) technology, a
second LED will activate when motion is detected.
Features
• LED (Light emitting diode) activates automatically at night and remains on.
• Passive Infrared (PIR) motion sensor operates for up to 5 metres with a 90° detection range both
vertically and horizontally.
Positioning your Solar Lights
Your solar lights include a built-in photo sensor that detects the level of surrounding natural light and
controls when your lights will automatically switch on and off. Your solar lights should be placed at least 1.5
metres apart from one another, and away from other night time light sources as this may keep the solar
lights from turning on at dusk.
Your solar lights must be located in an area where they will receive maximum amount of full, direct sunlight
every day.
At a bare minimum, your lights should be exposed to at least 4.5 hours of direct sunlight to charge the
battery. Shady locations that do not allow the battery to charge fully will reduce the hours of night time
light.
The performance of your solar lights is dependent on your geographical location, weather conditions and
seasonal lighting availability. On cloudy days and during winter, your solar lights will not receive as much
direct sunlight, resulting in reduced brightness and reduced operating times.
When locating a suitable location for your solar lights, remember that the PIR sensor detects an area of
approximately 90 degrees horizontally and vertically, within a range of up to 5 metres.
The recommended mounting height for your solar lights is approximately 1.6 metres.

Assembly & Installation
This pack should come complete with the following:
• 1 x solar wall lights with PIR sensor (Part A)
• 1 x fastening screw (Part B)
• 1 x plastic anchor (Part C)
To install your solar lights, follow the steps below:
Locate a wall or flat post where you wish to position your lights.
Before securing the lights to the surface, it is recommended that you first check the light effect at night to
be sure you are completely happy with the position you have chosen, both for the lighting effect and the
PIR sensor range.
It is also important to remember that lights must be installed in a location that will receive full sunlight each
day.
Concrete or Masonry Surface Installation
1. Drill a hole into the surface large enough to fit the plastic anchor (C) inside, then insert the anchor
into the hole.
2. Insert screw (B) into the plastic anchor (C), leaving approximately 5mm projecting out from the
surface.
3. Fix the solar light (A) to the surface by hooking the keyhole at the back of the light body over the
mounted screw installed in the previous step.
Wooden or Plasterboard Surface Installation
1. Drill the screw (B) into the surface, leaving approximately 5mm projecting out from the surface.
2. Fix the solar light (A) to the surface by hooking the keyhole at the back of the light body over the
mounted screw installed in the previous step.
First Time Use
The battery in your solar light must be fully charged before first time use. To charge the battery, follow
these steps.
1. Locate the AUTO/OFF push button at the back of the light body (A) and ensure it is in the OFF
position.
2. Place the solar light in direct sunlight for a total period of 36-48 hours before first use. The light will
achieve optimum light output after 4 days/nights exposure to sunlight, enabling the battery to fully
charge.
3. After you have fully charged the battery in each light, push the AUTO/OFF button into the AUTO
position. Your solar lights will then automatically switch on at dusk and charge during the daylight
hours. The PIR motion sensor will also only activate the LED during night time hours.

Battery Replacement
1. Remove the light body from its installed position and turn it upside down.
2. Using a small philips head screwdriver, remove the 5 screws securing the stainless steel base with
the internal plastic housing of the light.
3. Lift off the plastic cover from the front section of the light to reveal the battery compartment.
4. Replace the old battery with a new rechargeable 14500#3.2V – 500MA Lifepo4 battery.
The Lithium Battery included in this light should last for approximately 5 years depending on
frequency of use.
IMPORTANT: When the battery life is exhausted, ensure that your recycle or properly dispose of
the battery. DO NOT DISPOSE OF BATTERY IN A FIRE.
5. Replace the plastic cover onto the front section of the light, taking care to align the AUTO/OFF
rubber cover with the AUTO/OFF button inside the battery compartment. Press the cover down
firmly until it clicks into place.
6. Reattach the stainless steel base over the plastic housing and secure the 5 screws that were
removed in step 2.
7. Fully charge the battery by repeating the steps under the “First Time Use” section.
Troubleshooting
If your solar lights do not automatically turn on at night, it may be caused by one of the following
conditions:
• AUTO/OFF button has not been moved into the AUTO position.
• Battery is not fully charged or needs to be replaced.
• Battery may be loose or installed incorrectly.
• Solar light may be too close to another night time light source, including another solar light.
• If the LED controlled by the PIR is not activating, check to ensure that the light has been directed
towards the detection area. Reposition if necessary.
• If the LED controlled by the PIR sensor is not remaining ON for a long period of time, please note
that the activation time is determined by how close you are standing to the PIR sensor. This is to
prevent false triggering and to preserve battery life.
NOTE: if you are standing at the outer edge of the 5 metre detection range, the LED may activate only for
20 seconds unless you move closer to the light.
If you have moved closer to the light and are within 20cm of the sensor, the light will remain on for a
maximum of 40 seconds.
