SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Despite the measures that have been taken to make electronic flash equipment safe, it must be recognized that high voltages and high temperatures do exist within the power supply / lighting unit. Certain precautions must be observed in handling the unit.

Contact with internal high voltage may result in severe injury or death.

1.Before installing or removing the flashtube and modeling lamp, be sure this appliance is turned off, cooled and unplugged from AC power source.

2.Do not touch the glass tubes with bare hands, as normal body oils will shorten the bulb’s life. Always use a clean cloth or wear gloves to protect your hand from glass breakage and heat.

3.Do not defeat the purpose to the three-wire line cord by disconnecting the ground. Connect to properly functioning and grounded 3-pin receptacles only. If you are using an extension cord, be sure the cord has an equivalent or greater rating and has a ground.

4.Do not insert a screwdriver or other metal objects into the flashtube socket area or vents. Contact with high voltage may result.

5.Do not operate this appliance with a frayed or damaged line cord. When replacing or using the unit with an extension cable, be sure the cable has an equivalent or greater rating and is a properly connected 3-wire grounded cable.

6.Do not attempt to use this appliance if it has been dropped or damaged, until a qualified service person has serviced it.

7.Do not operate the unit with a damaged or broken flashtube or modeling lamp. To prevent damage always use Photogenic specified replacements for the flashtubes and modeling lamps.

8.Perform no internal service work on this unit. Refer all such service to a qualified service person or return to the factory. This will provide you safety and continuation of your warranty.

9.Do not operate when water is present (including ocean salt spray) and from extreme temperature shifts. If the unit is stored in hot or below freezing temperatures, allow at least one hour at room temperatures before using.
