Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Choose a location that receives direct sunlight for most of the day.
- Assemble the bollard light by following the included instructions (typically involves attaching the top section to the post and inserting the ground stake).
- Insert the bollard firmly into the ground.
- Ensure the solar panel is clean and unobstructed.
- Select your desired mode (continuous glow or PIR sensor) using the switch, usually located under the solar panel.
Compatibility:
This is a standalone solar-powered unit. It does not require connection to mains electricity or external power sources. It is designed for outdoor use in various weather conditions due to its IP44 rating.
Care:
- Regularly clean the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris, which can improve charging efficiency.
- Check the ground stake periodically to ensure the bollard remains stable.
- In areas with heavy snowfall, consider removing the bollard or ensuring the solar panel remains clear to prevent damage and allow charging.
