2. Preparing the mecablitz for use
2.1 Power supply
The flashgun can only be operated with 2 CR2- type lithium batteries. This type of battery can be stored for many years with practically no loss of energy, thus making it ideal for occasional amateur flash photography.
☞Batteries have become discharged or spent when recycling takes more than 60 seconds. The batteries should be removed from the mecablitz if the flashgun is not going to be used for a prolonged period.
2.2Loading and exchanging batteries
•Turn off the flashgun with the main switch.
•Press the unlocking catch, slide the battery compartment lid to the right and fold open (see fig. 1).
•Insert the batteries according to the indicated battery symbols.
