Instruction manual PRIOLITE M-PACK 500 / M-PACK 1000 (HS) + PRIO HEAD 1000
Do not flash into eyes from a short distance (under 5 meters) as this can cause injury to
◊
your eyes. Do not look directly into the flash reflector; the flash could be inadvertently
triggered.
Ventilate closed rooms regularly to prevent illegal ozone levels, which can be generated
◊
by the use of high-performance flash units.
Specific safety precautions when working with Lithium-ion
The provided Lithium-ion battery contains a protection circuit that protects the battery
against overload, deep discharge, short circuit and overheating.
In case of improper use (cutting, breaking, overheating) the batteries can explode or cause
fires, even after a prolonged time interval. Therefore, Lithium-ion batteries are generally to
be protected from mechanical damage and kept away from heat, open flames, and
corrosive liquids. Batteries must not be damaged in any way. Lithium cells generally
respond violently with water (particularly in fully charged condition); therefore, in case of
burning do not extinguish the flames with water, but use sand. Damaged Lithium-ion
batteries are readily to be disposed of in appropriate containers.
Lithium-ion batteries contain flammable and / or corrosive solutions and Lithium salts, which
may cause in the case of leakage irritation to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. In case
of contact with escaped electrolytes, gases, or fire by-products of a Lithium-ion battery, the
following first aid measures must be observed:
Eyes: In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately for at least 15 minutes with water.
Keep eyelids open in order to ensure the complete flushing of the eye.
Skin: Take off contaminated clothing and rinse under cold water for at least 15 minutes.
Respiratory system: Ensure fresh air supply. If necessary, perform first aid measures.
In any case, following first aid measures a doctor should be consulted.
Lithium-ion batteries must be only recharged with the supplied PRIOLITE charger of the
respective voltage class; use the 16V charger for M-PACK 500 and the 58V charger for M-
PACK 1000 (HS).
The charge should be performed only under supervision and not in close proximity to
combustible materials; sufficient dissipation of heat must be provided (do not charge the
battery in the sun).
If a Lithium-ion battery is carried on air travel, then it must be discharged prior to departure
to avoid any risks.
