Notes
• The flash unit will automatically switch to standby mode after a
series of around 20 to 30 quick-fire flashes at high output level
to protect the electronic components of the device against
overheating. The device cannot be reactivated during the
cool-down phase and the Ready LED will flash in 1.5 s intervals
during that time. The same will occur if the batteries are
overheating.
• If you don't intend to use the flash unit for an extended period of
time, we recommend switching it off and removing the batteries.
