Notes on use

While shooting

This flash unit generates strong light, so it should not be used directly in front of the eyes.

Batteries

• The battery level displayed on the control panel may be lower than the actual battery capacity, temperature, and storage conditions. The displayed battery level is restored to the correct value after the flash has

been used a few times. When blinks to indicate that the flash cannot be used, pressing the flash ON/OFF button a number of times may result in restoration of the correct battery level display. If the battery level is still not restored, replace the battery.

• When using lithium batteries, if the batteries become hot due to high

temperature or continuous use,

may blink and the flash may not

work for a while. Wait for the batteries to cool down before using the

flash again.

 

 

Nickel-metal hydride batteries can lose power suddenly. If

starts

blinking or the flash can no longer be used while taking pictures, change or recharge the batteries.

The flash frequency and number of flashes provided by new batteries may vary from the values shown in the table, depending on the time elapsed since manufacture of the batteries.
