Batteries

• Use four new, size-AA alkaline (LR6) batteries.

When the batteries are dead, replace them all at the

same time with the same brand.

• When using Ni-Cd batteries, please note that various

brands have different types of terminals. Be sure to

use a suitable type. Recharge Ni-Cd batteries accor­
ding to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Carbon-zinc batteries may also be used, but their life
is shorter.

• 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. Keep the batteries warm until just
before use. For best results, use fully-charged Ni-Cd
batteries in cold temperatures below 0°/32°F.

• Wipe the battery terminals with a clean, dry cloth to

ensure proper contact because correct electrical con­

tact is not possible if the contact surface is dirty. (See

handling precautions #7)
