1. Safety Instructions
• The flash unit is exclusively intended and approved for photographic
use!
• Never fire a flash in the vicinity of flammable gases or liquids (petrol,
solvents, etc.) - DANGER OF EXPLOSION!
• Never take flash shots of car, bus or train drivers, or of motorcycle and
bicycle riders, whilst they are travelling. They could be blinded by the
light and cause an accident!
• Never fire a flash in the immediate vicinity of the eyes! Flash fired direct-
ly in front of the eyes of a person or animal can damage the retina and
lead to severe visual disorders - even blindness!
• Only use the approved power sources listed in the operating instructions!
• Do not expose batteries to excessive heat, sunshine, fire and the like!
• Never throw exhausted batteries on to a fire!
• Exhausted batteries should be immediately removed from the flash unit!
Lye leaking out of spent batteries will damage the unit.
• Never recharge dry-cell batteries!

water!
• Protect the flash unit from excessive heat and humidity! Do not store the
flash unit in the glove compartment of a car!
• Never place material that is impervious to light in front of, or directly on,
the reflector screen. The reflector screen must be perfectly clean when a
flash is fired. The high energy of the flash light will burn the material or
damage the reflector screen if this is not observed.
• Do not touch the reflector screen after a series of flash shots. Danger of
burns!
• Never disassemble the flashgun! DANGER: HIGH VOLTAGE!
• There are no components inside the flashgun that can be repaired by a
layperson.
• When taking a series of flash shots at full light output and fast recycling
times as provided by NiCad battery operation, make sure to observe an
interval of at least 10 minutes after 15 flashes, otherwise the flash unit
will be overloaded.
