Inserting Batteries
The fl ash takes four AA alkaline or nickel-metal hy-
dride (NiMH) batteries (Ni-MH batteries are rec-
ommended for increased endurance and shorter
charging times).
O
Replace all four batteries at the same time, using fresh or ful-
ly-charged batteries of the same brand and type. The rubber
gasket inside the cover prevents water entry; if the unit is wet,
dry it thoroughly before opening the cover and remove any
droplets on or around the gasket.
1 Press the area around the top of
the cover down slightly and then
continue sliding the cover down
to open it.
O
Before opening the cover, be sure the power switch is in the
OFF position.
2 Insert four AA batteries in the ori-
entation shown on the inside of
the cover.
O
Failure to insert the batteries in the correct orientation could
result in malfunction.
3 Close the cover.
O
Be careful that the cover does not
catch the black dust-/water-resistant
gasket.
