safety precautions when handling the unit.

 

Protect the flashhead and the power pack when used in humid conditions, but ensure ventilation for cooling!

Flash cables must be connected correctly before switching on the power pack.

Acclimatizing: If the unit has been exposed to very cold conditions, sudden exposure to warm or humid air may cause condensation and malfunction.

Prevent direct sunlight, which might heat up the head and the power pack.

Do not open the unit. In the event of damage, apparent failure, or a defect flash tube, please contact the Elinchrom Service Centre.

Flash tubes and modelling lamps may generate high pressure during operation. Explosions may occur with aged flash tubes and incorrect fuse / halogen lamp combinations. For this reason the flash tube is covered with a glass dome. In case of a damaged flash tube or a broken security cover the flashhead must be immediately unplugged from the power pack and sent to an authorized Elinchrom customer service.

Only lamp connectors with immaculate contacts must be used, burned or/and corroded contacts may cause explosions in the area of connectors and lamp sockets.

Do not route cables across the studio floor if possible, so that damage is prevented. If routing across the studio floor cannot be avoided, then it must be ensured that vehicles, ladders, etc. do not damage cables. Damaged cables and cases must be immediately replaced by customer service.
