Installing the Batteries
q
Slide the battery cover release button
downward to open the battery com-
partment.
w
Insert two new “AA”-size alkaline or NiMH
batteries into the battery compartment,
ensuring that the polarity indications “+”
and “−” are aligned correctly. The unit will
not operate properly if the batteries are
installed incorrectly.
e
Close the battery cover until it clicks.
Press the POWER switch to the “ON”
position. When the unit is switched on,
it will start charging with a slight hum-
ming sound and the READY lamp starts
to blink.
Now the unit is ready for shooting. (The
READY lamp stops blinking and re-
mains illuminated when the unit is fully
charged.)
r
To switch the power off , press the POW-
ER switch again. The READY lamp will go
off and the unit will not fl ash.
* Be careful not to short-circuit the shoe
terminals while the unit is switched on
without being mounted on the camera.
Otherwise, unexpected fi ring or a failure
may result.
* It is recommended to use the NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) batteries in order to
decrease the charging time and increase the fi ring count.
About the READY Lamp
The fi ring power may be insuffi cient immediately after lighting of the READY lamp.
To obtain optimum brightness for shooting, wait a few seconds before releasing
the shutter after the READY lamp comes on.
* If the READY lamp blinks for more than 30 seconds, it is likely that the batteries
are exhausted and need replacement (provided that the unit is not mounted on
the camera and the READY lamp blinks for more than 30 seconds after previous
fi ring).
Mounting the Unit on the Camera
Be sure to set the POWER switch to OFF before mounting or dismounting the unit.
If the POWER switch is left ON, unexpected fl ashing or a malfunction of the camera
may result.
q
Firmly slide the fl ash onto the camera’s shoe and turn the lock ring to the left to
fi x the fl ash.
w
Once the fl ash has been mounted on the shoe, the shutter speed will be auto-
matically set when both the fl ash and camera are turned on.
Now the camera is ready for fl ashing.
Test Firing
After the READY lamp lights steadily, press the TEST/ READY
button to activate test fi ring. This allows you to confi rm that
the fl ash fi res.
