Remove the batteries from the
unit when you do not intend to
use the unit for a prolonged
period.

Batteries may be hot immediately
after the unit has been used.
Before removing them from the
unit, turn off the unit’s power and
wait until the temperature of the
batteries has dropped.

At low temperatures (under
10 °C), the performance of
batteries will deteriorate and the
number of flashes fired by the
unit will be sharply reduced. The
operating duration of batteries
tends to be shorter particularly
when alkaline dry batteries are
used so warm them in your
pocket before use. When
warming batteries in your pocket,
avoid direct contact with cigarette
lighters and other metal objects
as well as with pocket/body
warmers.

The number of flashes fired by
the unit may also be sharply
reduced if the

+

and

-

electrodes of the batteries are
exposed to oils from the skin or
other forms of dirt. Before
installing the batteries, wipe the

+

and

-

electrodes carefully

using a soft, dry cloth.

If electrolytes should leak from the
batteries, wipe away all traces of
the electrolyte in the battery
compartment, and then insert fresh
batteries or fully charged nickel
metal hydride batteries.

If you should get electrolyte on your
hands or clothes, rinse it off
thoroughly with water. If you should
get electrolyte in your eyes, you risk
losing your sight. In such a case,
do not rub your eyes but
immediately wash them with clean
water, and then seek medical
advice.
