ALWAYS

Always switch power off and disconnect from the supply before changing modelling bulb or flash tube.

Always disconnect the supply before changing the fuse. Never replace with a fuse of a different rating.

A spare fuse is fitted in the fuse holder under the AC inlet (see page 4).

Always excercise care when handling equipment that has been in use. The reflector and front end of the unit can become Very Hot.

Always avoid placing cables where they can be tripped over. Protect from heavy, sharp or hot objects, which may cause damage and replace damaged cables immediately.

Due to the high voltage / high energy used in Travelites, all servicing must be carried out by a Calumet-authorized service center.

Always remove the power cord by gripping the plug. NEVER pull the cord.

Always ensure that any extension cord used has a suitable current rating to prevent overheating and never use coiled extension cords.

Always remove the flash head covers before using.

Safety Notes

DO NOT’S

Do not restrict air vents while in use.

Do not use a unit with damaged housing, moldings, flash tube or modeling lamp. If the unit is dropped or damaged in any way, always have it checked out before using.
