Nikon SB-27 instruction manual

Notes on batteries

Battery power tends to weaken as the temperature drops; it also drains off slowly when not in use for a long period of time, and recovers after a short break following intensive use. Be sure to replace the batteries with a fresh set if you notice any delays in recycling.

•Do not mix battery brands or types, as battery performance differs with each brand.

•When installing the battery, turn the SB-27's power OFF and make sure that the battery terminals +≠ are correctly oriented.

•When replacing batteries, be sure to replace all the batteries at the same time. Always use fresh batteries of the same brand and type.

—Wrong battery usage may shorten battery life or cause malfunction.

•Do not disassemble, short-circuit or heat batteries. Do not dispose of batteries by burning, as explosions may result.

•If the SB-27 is not in use for more than two weeks, remove the batteries from the flash unit and keep them in a cool, dry place below 20°C (68°F).

Warning:

•Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

•Dry batteries shall not be subjected to charging.
