• The flash charge time will lengthen as the battery charge gets weaker. Always set the power/mode switch to [OFF] when you finish using the flash.

•Be careful not to touch the flash window or sensor windows with your fingers while the flash is in use.

•In outdoor settings in the daylight, the flash may not detect illumination from the camera’s built-in flash and may not fire.

•The flash may fire if another flash is being used in close proximity.

•The flash may not fire if there are no reflective items in its metering field.

•The flash will not fire if the camera's built-in flash does not fire a pre- flash.

•For continuous shooting, although the flash fires for the first shot, it does not fire for subsequent shots.

•If the battery usage time has considerably diminished, wipe the battery terminals well with a dry cloth as the terminals may be soiled with oil from one’s skin or other dirt.
