Using this personalized solar light is easy. First, find a sunny spot in your garden or yard to place the light. The solar panel needs sunlight during the day to charge the battery. Once the sun goes down, the light will automatically turn on and display a beautiful multi - color illumination. To maintain it, keep the solar panel clean. You can use a soft cloth to wipe off any dirt or debris. If it's dirty, the panel won't charge properly. Don't place the light in a very wet area for a long time as it might damage the internal components. When not in use for a long period, store it in a dry place. Also, if you want to change the photo on the acrylic ornament, handle it carefully as it's made of acrylic and can break easily.
