in a row or in quick succession
in order to prevent heating and
degradation of the unit and
batteries. (when the flash power
level is 1/32, 40 times in a row.)
Stop using the unit and cool it
for 10 minutes or more, if the
flash is triggered up to the limit
for the number of times in quick
succession.

Batteries
• The battery level displayed on
the LCD panel of the flash may
be lower than the actual battery
capacity, due to temperature

displayed battery level may be
restored to the correct value
after the flash has been used a
few times.
