Intended use.
The product is intended for the use as lightformer attached to a PRIOLITE flash unit in

cleansing purposes, dust, or pressure.
Safety intructions.

The flash unit must always be set up only at its final usage site and the corresponding
light modifier attachment (reflector, soft box, umbrella, etc.) mounted before the unit is
put into operation. Accordingly, the flash unit must always be switched off before the
unit is repositioned or the light modifier is changed.

After longer periods of operation the flash unit and the attached accessories can
become very hot. To avoid burns upon contact, you should use suitable heat guards
when handling the equipment or wait until it has cooled down. Due to the heat build-
up, the compact flash unit must not be operated in the vicinity of flammable objects.
Sufficient safety clearance with regard to decoration for photographic purposes must
be ensured.

It must be ensured that during attaching / detaching the lightformer to the flash unit
glass dome and flashtube are not damaged.

A damaged flashtube poses a risk of severe injury or death, as you can come into
contact with the voltage-carrying electrodes. In this case, switch off the unit
immediately and disconnect it from the power supply. For safety reasons, you must
wait at least 5 minutes after disconnecting the unit from the power supply to ensure
that the capacitors have discharged via the internal safety circuit. The same applies to
any type of maintenance work or before transports, which may be undertaken on the
unit only when it has been switched off and disconnected from the power supply after
the waiting period has expired.
