How do I install the TRÅDFRI motion sensor kit?

Open the motion sensor on the back and insert the supplied batteries. Set the pointer to the moon to have the light react to the motion sensor only when it is dark, or set it to the sun so that the sensor always works.

Please note: This video shows the previous version of the TRÅDFRI motion sensor. You could also set a time when the light went out again. With the current motion sensor, the light turns off after 3 minutes, and you can't set it.
