Letterbox (mailbox) with integrated solar panel

Dear customer,
Thank you for choosing this product from BURG-WÄCHTER. We hope you will enjoy this letterbox (mailbox) with integrated solar panel.

General remarks

Please read the instructions carefully before the commissioning of the solar panel and the assembly of the letterbox (mailbox). Store the instruction manual away safely. For possible injuries or damages occurring during a wrongful installation or inappropriate handling, the manufacturer accepts no liability.

Function / Assembly

The door of the letterbox (mailbox) is provided with an integrated solar panel. The panel uses the sunlight’s energy to charge the NiMH battery.
With approaching dusk, during the night or at dawn, the battery supplies the LEDs with power. Whether the battery will be charged or the LEDs will be glowing, is automatically regulated by the respective light conditions. Before the assembly of the letterbox (mailbox), it is advisable to fully charge the battery once: For this, please open the door of the letterbox (mailbox).

Please remove the battery backup stripe carefully from the battery case on the door inside (see fi g. 1 and 2). Close the door and place the box with the panel facing the direct sun for approx. 10 hours.

\With a completely charged battery and under optimal conditions, the battery life can last more than 10 hours.

Assembling note: During installation, please regard that the solar cells face the sun or resp. that as much light as possible meets the cells.

Please stick the house number according to your wishes onto the panel as seen in the figure on page 1. To assure an ideal adhesion, the temperature should not be under 5°C.

Changing the battery

Every battery is a wearing part, whose durability depends on the use, as e.g. on the number of charge cycles or charge times. With very low temperatures, the functionality of the battery can in some circumstances slightly be limited.

If you have to change the battery, open the door and loosen the screw that fixates the battery case lid.

Exchange the battery. Only NiMH batteries with a capacity of approx.
60–1000mAh are usable.

Please consider the polarity during an exchange of the battery.
(Labelling (labeling) inside the battery case.)

Apply the battery case lid again and screw it in place.

Cleaning note

Dusty and dirty solar cells can compromise the functionality significantly.
For cleaning, neither alcohol containing (spirit, SIDOLIN® or the like) nor aggressive cleaning agents (acetone or the like) should be used. Dusty or dirty surfaces can easily be wiped with a soft, wet cloth.
