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.
