RP-SAL-8W-G2 Solar Area Light
Product Information
The RP-SAL-G2 Solar Area Light is a high-quality solar-powered
light fixture designed for outdoor use. It comes in two models:
RP-SAL-8W-G2 and RP-SAL-30W-G2. This fixture is not intended for
emergency lighting and should not be used in environments with
explosive or corrosive gases. The fixture does not have any
user-serviceable parts and should not be disassembled or
modified.
The solar fixture comes with a 5-year warranty against
manufacturing defects. However, physical damage, wear and tear,
improper operation, and normal battery performance loss over time
are not covered by the warranty. The performance of the solar
fixture is influenced by various factors such as sunlight level,
extreme temperatures, snow, dirt, and program selection.
Product Usage Instructions
- Before installation, read the entire installation
instructions. - This light should be installed by a qualified professional who
is responsible for ensuring safe installation, proper maintenance,
and safety checks. - Confirm that the pole or structure can support the weight of
the specific model being installed (RP-SAL-8W-G2 or
RP-SAL-30W-G2). - Choose a site for installation that receives direct sunlight
and is not blocked by trees, buildings, or other structures. Ensure
that no light sources will shine on the solar panel during
night-time hours. - The solar panel functions like a photo-cell, so if there is
light on the solar panel, the LED lights will not come on. - Allow the light 1-2 days to get on the proper charge/discharge
cycle. Initial performance may not be optimal during the first
nights of operation. - Refer to Solar Best Practice Guidelines on the Solera-Solar.com
website for additional information. - Charge the light for 4 hours using the charger provided before
installation. - Adjust the operating mode of the light based on the
environment. It may be necessary to change the program at different
times of the year. - Carefully remove the light from the packaging.
- For best results, charge the light for 4 hours prior to
installation using the charging port. - Follow the installation instructions provided in the user
manual, including slip fitter installation, LED panel angle
adjustment, and optional bracket installation if required.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1) Carefully remove light from packaging. 2) For best results, charge the light for 4 hours prior to installation using
the included charger. Please see image on the right for charging port location. 3) Check the function of the light by placing it solar panel down on the carton or packing material. Do this in a way that prevents light from reaching the solar panel. 4) Ensure that the remote control has batteries in it. 5) Point the remote control at the sensor window and press the “On” button to turn the light on (see page 3). 6) The LED light panel should come on, and the red indicator light should be blinking slowly or on solid. 7) Once confirmed, turn the light off. 8) If using the included slip fitter, slide it onto the fixture and secure it using the included tamper resistant bolts and wrench. Please see diagram on the right. 9) The LED angle can be adjusted by loosening the screws, rotating the panel and then tightening the screws. Please see image on the right. 10) Install the fixture on the pole, bracket or mounting surface as shown. Several mounting examples are shown. 11) Using the remote control turn the fixture on and set the mode. 12) Ensure that the fixture receives direct sunlight, and is oriented so that the solar panel faces south (Northern Hemisphere) and that the solar panel has an angle of 15 degrees or more to allow for self-cleaning. 13) Tighten and Double Check that all mounting hardware has been properly tightened. 14) Check LED Light panel orientation, re-adjust if necessary. Ensure that the 2 locking screws are secure. 15) Please read next page for remote control operation and setting the mode and output of the light.
