To protect the high-precision technology contained in this product,
never leave the flash in the places listed below, no matter if in use or

When the electronic flash has not been used for a long period, mold

Battery Handling Precautions
If the +/– terminals of a battery are stained with sweat or oil
smudges, contact failure may result. Clean the terminals well with a
dry cloth before using the batteries.
All rechargeable batteries must be recharged using the specified
battery charger, simultaneously and completely. Be sure to read the
battery and battery charger instruction manual.
In general, battery performance will be temporarily reduced as the
ambient temperature drops. When using batteries in a cold place,
keep them warm by keeping the electronic flash in cold protection
gear or clothing.
When traveling, it is a good idea to carry spare batteries with you. In
some countries, it may be difficult to obtain certain batteries.
When disposing of a rechargeable battery, insulate the +/– terminals
with pieces of tape and be sure to follow local regulations.
