These instructions relate ONLY to this product and contain important informa-

tion for using the product for the first time. Please keep these instructions for

later reference and should always accompany the product in the event of trans-

ference to a new user.

1. Introduction

Dear Costumer,

Thank you for purchasing the solar light. With this solar light you purchased a product

manufactured according to the current state of technology.

This product fulfils all requirements of the valid European and national regula-

tions. The conformity was proved. The relevant declarations and documentati-

on are deposited with the manufacturer.

To maintain this state and guarantee a safe operation, you as the user will have to fol-

low this operating manual!

2. Safety Instructions

- In case of damages caused by not

following this operating manual, the

warranty rights will expire! We exclude

liability for any consequential damages!

- We exclude liability for property or

personal damages caused by inappropriate

handling or not following the safety instructions.

- In these cases any guarantee rights will expire.

Due to safety and admission reasons (CE) it is not allowed to arbitrarily reconstruct

and/or change the solar light.

Therefore, please keep to the operating manual.

The accident prevention rules of the association of the industrial trade cooperative

association for electric plants and working material are to be considered in industrial

environments.

3. Intended Use

- The pump system is designed for the outdoor use in garden ponds. The integra-

ted accumulator is charged depending on the solar radiation to the solar module

and the pump will produce water correspondingly.

- A direct and shadow-free solar radiation is required for the function of the pump.

- When starting the pump, the integrated accumulator may be partially discharged

and the pump will not produce/lift any water. Please charge the accumulator in

the accumulator station for one day with solar radiation and leave the pump

switched-off while charging (switch in position “OFF”). For more details, please

see the manual of the accumulator box.

- On days with little sunshine, we recommend to operate of the pump in interval

mode (pump runs for approx. 15 minutes every hour) and to control the opera-

ting voltage to 6 V (see manual of the accumulator box).

- The pump system is particularly characterized by its ease of installation and

assembly. No tools are required for the assembly.

- The pump must not be used for the production/lifting of drinking water.

- The power (operating voltage) of the pump may be adjusted by means of a con-

troller on the accumulator station.

- In order to avoid any disturbing gurgling, simply shorten the standpipe.

- In order to safely interrupt the production (of water) and protect the system

against unauthorized activation, you will have to switch-off the pump system and

disconnect the cable between accumulator box and pump.

4. Assembly and commissioning

The pump system consists of the following components:

1. Solar module with a three-piece ground spike.

2. Submerged pump in a plastic housing with a 5 m connection cable.

3. Accumulator box with a 6 V/ 3,2 Ah accumulator.

4. Standpipes and 4 water nozzles.

5. LED Light ring with twilight sensor mounted on an adapter.

Note: Before assembly, please carefully read the manual of the accumulator

box. It contains important information and notes!

1. Completely unroll the connection cable at the pump.

2. Attach the adapter to the pump and then the standpipes onto the adapter. Then,

insert the LED light ring onto the standpipe by means of the included adapter.

Now, attach the desired sprinkler onto the standpipe (illustration above on the

left).

3. Now, release the cap at the cable of the pump, pull out the sealing plug and

insert the plug of the LED light ring into the socket. Screw the cap nut tight (illu-

stration above on the right).

4. Put the pump onto a stone in the pond. Please avoid placing the pump directly

at the ground of the pond because here, a particularly high amount of dirt is suk-

ked in by the pump and the nozzles will be clogged quickly.

Note: This pump is equipped with a dry run protection function. At the side of the

pump, there are two sensor points. Those sensor points shall be completely

under water. If one of the sensor points rises from the water, the pump is auto-

matically switched-off in order to protect the pump. Please also see the pump

manual.

5. Please make sure that the accumulator box is switched-off and now connect the

plug of the pump with the socket at the accumulator box.

6. Completely unroll the cable at the accumulator box and insert the plug into the

back side of the solar module.

7. Now, screw the ground spike tight at the back side of the solar module by

means of the cap nut and insert the solar module at a sunny and shadow-free

place.

Note: Before switching on the system, please carefully read the manual of the

accumulator box. It contains important information and notes!

Note: Do not apply force when inserting the solar module. The front side of the

solar module is fragile.

Attention: Risk of injury! A broken may not be repaired anymore and has to be dis-

posed of it in an environmentally sound manner.

5 m extension cables for the pump or the accumulator box are available through the

manufacturer or your dealer.

5. LED Illumination

The LED illumination of the light

ring is automatically activated at

dusk. Apart from the 3 LEDs, a twi-

light sensor is installed as light

sensor. This sensor looks like an

LED but is not illuminated.
