HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

The electronic flash is composed of precision electronic parts. Absolutely avoid using or storing the electronic
flash in the following places, as this may result in malfunction or failure.
• Under direct sunlight, on a beach, etc.
• Anywhere exposed to high temperatures and humidity or rapid fluctuations in temperature and humidity.
• Any place exposed to excessive sand, dust or dirt.
• Near a fire.
• Near an air conditioner or air humidifier.
• Any place exposed to water or moisture.
• Any place subject to vibrations.
• Inside an automobile.
Do not apply a strong vibration or shock to the electronic flash by dropping it or hitting it against something.
When the electronic flash has not been used for a long period, mold or moss may form. This can cause a
malfunction. To prevent this, it is recommended to check the operations before using the electronic flash
after a long period of storage.
Do not touch the electric contacts of the electronic flash to prevent malfunction.
To prevent overheating and deterioration of the light-emitting section, do not continue full activation more than 10
times in a row. After 10 successive operations, stop firing for a while until the light-emitting section cools down.
