￿Notes

Up to 10 successive full flashes are permitted. After 10 flashes, the flash should not be used for more than 10 minutes to allow the light-emitting surface to be left cooled.

Charging times and flash count data were obtained from Olympus in-house testing.

When using the HV- 1, keep it in the hard

case to protect the attached battery pack.

Memo: Always turn the HV-1 on before turning the electronic flash on. Since the HV-1 supplies control power to the electronic flash, the electronic flash can be used without the battery pack. In this case, however, note that battery charge time increases and the flashing count decreases.

￿Note

If the indicator lamp blinks in red while the battery pack is attached correctly as described in this manual, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and contact Olympus.
