necting the AC/DC adapter plug from the Power

Pack.
Change-over to charging is automatic when

discharging has been completed.

6. Self-discharge

NiMH batteries have an inherent self-discharge

rate. With the Power Pack this depends upon the

duration of use and a number of other factors and

amounts to approx. 1 to 3 per cent of the rated

capacity per day.

7. Faults and Remedies

The following appears on the Power Pack display:

7.1 Temperature fault

The Power Pack is either too cold or too warm to be

charged (fig.6). Charging will start automatically as

soon as the temperature is within 6 °C and 35 °C.

7.2 Charging is automatically aborted

The three LED’s on the display panel start blinking

when the Power Pack automatically stops charging,

as described in Chapter 4.2 (see fig.7).

Repeat the attempt to charge. If this still remains

unsuccessful, then the service life of the batteries has

probably come to its end. Please contact an authori-

zed METZ servicing centre to have the defective bat-

teries exchanged.
For reasons of safety these charging attempts should

not be repeated several times!

7.3 Short-circuit

The flash-ready light starts blinking in the event of a

short-circuit or overload of the connecting socket of

the Power Pack (fig.8).
Try to remedy the fault by briefly switching the main

switch off and then on again, or by disconnecting

and then reconnecting the AC/DC adapter plug.
If this remains unsuccessful then either the connec-

ting cable or the flashgun is defective.

Do not repeatedly try to switch on the Power
Pack!
