11. Care and maintenance - Troubleshooting
Remove grime and dust with a soft, dry cloth. Do
not use cleaning agents as these could damage
the plastic parts.
Forming the flash capacitor
The flash capacitor incorporated in the flashgun
undergoes a physical change when the flashgun
is not switched on for prolonged periods. For this
reason it is necessary to switch on the flashgun
for approx. 10 minutes every 3 months and to fire
a few flashes The batteries must supply sufficient
power to light up the flash-ready light within one
minute after the flashgun was switched on.
Manual firing button
An uncontrolled flash can be fired with the
manual firing button (see fig. 8).
Troubleshooting:
If the flashgun does not work as it should in the
individual modes, then proceed as follows:
• Switch off the flashgun with the main switch.
• Remove the rechargeable or dry-cell batteries
for a brief period, and then load them again.
