Itis provided with an automatic metering system.CAUTION• The flash cannot be used on camcorders.• Misfiring sometimes occurs when the POWER switch is turned on and offcontinuously.• When the flash is used in low-temperature conditions, battery performance isreduced. For example, the number of flashed becomes lower than that in roomtemperature (about 20 C), and the charging time becomes longer. We recommendpreparing new batteries. Note, however, that even batteries whose performance hasdropped due to low temperatures are restored by returning them to roomtemperature.• Do not leave or store the flash in temperatures that exceed 40 C. Doing so mightadversely affect the internal structure of video flash. (In particular, take care not toleave the flash in automobiles during summer.)9-929-810-12
