2. Preparing the mecablitz for use
2.1 Power supply
The flashgun can only be operated with 2 CR2-type lithi-
um batteries. This type of battery can be stored for many
years with practically no loss of energy, thus making it
ideal for occasional amateur flash photography.
Batteries have become discharged or spent
when recycling takes more than 60 seconds.
The batteries should be removed from the
mecablitz if the flashgun is not going to be used
for a prolonged period.
2.2 Loading and exchanging batteries
• Turn off the flashgun with the main switch.
• Press the unlocking catch, slide the battery
compartment lid to the right and fold open (see
fig. 1).
• Insert the batteries according to the indicated
battery symbols.
The supplied lithium batteries are expendables
and, as such, are not subject to our warranty pro-
visions.
After the batteries have been inserted, fold down
the battery compartment lid, and push to the left
until it engages audible with the unlocking catch.
