How do I clean my solar light without damaging it?

Modified on Thu, 20 Aug at 8:02 PM

Cleaning the panel and housing can improve charging and keep the light looking its best, but it should always be done gently. These solar lights are intended for outdoor use and benefit from regular, careful cleaning with a damp cloth. fileciteturn0file5turn0file6

  1. Switch the product off before cleaning it. Expected result: the light should remain safely inactive while you clean it. fileciteturn0file5turn0file6
  2. Wipe the solar panel and outer surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Expected result: dust and film should lift without scratching the surface. fileciteturn0file5turn0file6
  3. Check that no water sits around the battery compartment, switch area or seams after cleaning. Expected result: the product should look dry before you turn it back on. fileciteturn0file1turn0file6
  4. Do not use abrasive pads, solvents or pressure washers. Expected result: the finish and sealing should stay intact. fileciteturn0file1turn0file6
  5. Stop using the product if cleaning reveals cracks, corrosion, loose seals or internal moisture. If the issue remains unresolved or safe use is uncertain, contact the retailer or store where the product was purchased. fileciteturn0file1turn0file6
