fire and the like!

•NEVER throw spent batteries in a fire!

•Do not expose the flashgun to dripping or splashing water!

•Protect the flashgun against excessive heat and high humidity levels! Do not keep the flashgun in the glove compartment of a car!

•Insert the flashgun base into the camera’s accessory shoe and tighten by turning the knurled screw so that the flashgun cannot slip and fall out!

•In the event of flash shots with full light output and short recycling times with a rechargeable NiCad battery, observe an interval of at least 3 minutes after a series of 20 flashes. This will protect the flashgun against overload.

•NEVER place material that is impervious to light in front of, or directly on, the reflector screen. The reflector screen must be perfectly clean when a flash is fired. The high energy of the flash light will burn the material or damage the screen if this is not observed!

•NEVER dismantle the flashgun! DANGER: HIGH VOLTAGE! There are no components inside the flas- hgun that can be repaired by a layperson.
