Preliminary Preparations
1. Loading the Batteries
Use four, new, size-AA alkaline (LR6) or
Ni-Cd batteries. Carbon-zinc batteries may
also be used, but their life is shorter. Wipe
the battery terminals with a clean, dry cloth
to ensure proper contact.
1) Slide the battery chamber cover down in
the direction of the arrow to open.
2) Load the batteries so that their terminals
face in the directions indicated by the
diagram inside the battery chamber.
3) Finally, push the cover completely down
and slide it back to close.
• When the batteries become exhausted, replace
all four at the same time with the same brand.
• Remove the batteries if you do not expect to use
the flash unit for about three weeks or longer.
• Battery
performance
deteriorates
in
cold
temperatures below 0°C/32°F so please keep
the batteries warm until just before use. For
best results, use fully-charged Ni-Cd batteries in
cold temperatures below 0°C/32°F
• When using Ni-Cd batteries, please note that
various brands have different types of ter¬
minals.
Be
sure to
use
a suitable type.
Recharge Ni-Cd batteries according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
