Safekeeping the SB-104
Remove the NiCd battery.
If the Speedlight will not be used for a long
time, remove the battery from it. If the
battery leaks, flammable gas may be
produced inside the battery chamber
which is very dangerous. If that happens,
do not use the Speedlight and take it to a
Nikon service center.
When storing the SB-104...
store the Speedlight in a cool, dry place to prevent mold from growing on it.
Do not leave the Speedlight inside an enclosed location, such as humid or
wet areas, or places subject to magnetism or chemicals such as camphor or
naphthalene (mothballs).
Test fire the Speedlight about
once a month.
If the Speedlight is being kept in storage
for a long time, take it out about once a
month, insert the NiCd battery unit SN-104,
and fire the Speedlight several times to
prevent the condenser from weakening.
Before returning it to storage, turn OFF the
power switch while the ready-light is lit,
and remove the battery.
—By occasionally test firing the SB-104, you
can preserve the performance of the
condenser for a iong period of time.
