If you set the multi-function switch
ቮ to the „clock symbol“, the flashgun is
automatically switched off approximately 10 minutes after it was last used, thus
protecting the batteries against inadvertent discharge.
The last used operating mode, or the last set user program is retained when the
flashgun is switched off so that it becomes instantly available when the flash is
switched on. Press the „+“ or „-“ button
ቪ to switch on again
