Mains Supply

Mains Supply

With the MAINS SWITCH (3) switched off ("O" position), firmly push in the plug of the original ELINCHROM mains cord into the mains socket (1).

Mains Switch

The switch should light up when the compact is switched on ("I" position). (Switch off before removing the mains cord).

Troubleshooting

If the on/off switch (3) is ON ("I" position) but not illuminated, switch off the unit and check the mains fuse (2).

If failed replace with the correct fuse and switch ON the unit.

This unit is protected by a thermal circuit breaker to avoid overheating.

Should this occur, the unit turns off automatically and cannot be fired.

After a break for cooling, the flash will be ready again for operation.

See page 11: Troubleshooting

This equipment is not user serviceable and contains high voltages which are dangerous. In the event of failure, please return the unit to an authorized Elinchrom service station.

Mains Fuse

Standard type 5 x 20 mm, (use only tempered fuse) 8 AT (code 19022) for Style 100FX and Style 400FX

Note: Before exchanging a blown fuse, switch off the unit and remove mains cable. Depress and turn the fuse holder anti-clockwise 1/8th, turn and remove it. If the new fuse blows immediately upon reconnection, return the unit to an ELINCHROM service centre for a check-up.

(Please don't forget to check the correct rating of the fuse !).

Fuse for modelling light

Fast type 5 x 20mm, 4 AF

Switch off the unit and replace the blown fuse with a new one of the correct rating.

The fastblow fuse will protect the triac of the modelling lamp circuit, the lamp and therefore the flash tube.
