ABOUT THE BATTERY
This flash unit uses four "AA" type Alkaline dry cell batteries, Ni-Cad or Ni-MH rechargeable batteries.
Manganese batteries can also be used but as they have a shorter life than Alkaline batteries, we do
not recommend using them. Please replace batteries if it takes more than 30seconds to light the
Ready Lamp.
To assure proper electrical contact, clean the battery terminals before installing the batteries.
◆
Ni-Cad or Ni-MH batteries do not have standardized contacts. If you use Ni-Cad or Ni-MH batteries,
◆
please confirm that the battery contacts touch the battery compartment properly.
To prevent battery explosion, leakage or overheating, use four new AA batteries of the same type
◆
and brand. Do not mix the type or new and used batteries.
Do not disassemble or short-circuit the batteries, or expose them fire or water; they may explode. Do
◆
not recharge the batteries other than Ni-Cad or Ni-MH rechargeable batteries.
When the flash will not be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from the flash
◆
to avoid the possibility of damage from leakage.
Battery performance decreases at low temperatures. Keep batteries insulated when using the flash
◆
in cold weather.
As with any flash, it is recommended you carry spare batteries when on a long trip or when
◆
photographing outdoors in cold weather.

To conserve battery power, the flash unit automatically turns itself off when the flash is not used for
approximately 240 seconds. To turn the flash on again, depress the "TEST" button, or depress the
camera shutter button halfway. Please note that, "Auto Power Off" mechanism does not work with
'Wireless' off-camera flash mode, normal slave flash, and designated slave flash modes.

unit, the "Er" mark will blink on the LCD panel. When this occurs, turn the power switch off and on. If it
still blinks, after this procedure, check the battery power.
