- Use a screwdriver or a similar tool to remove the battery cover of the motion sensor.
- Insert the provided batteries with their positive side outward.
- Replace the battery cover.
- Use the screwdriver to adjust the Day / Night setting.
- Set it to the crescent moon if you want detected motion to turn the light on during nighttime only.
- Set it to the sun with rays if you want detected motion to turn the light on during daytime and nighttime.
- Similarly, adjust the Time setting. Set the light to be turned off 1, 5 or 10 minutes after last motion was detected.
