mechanical problems, do not use or store the flash in the following places:

• Places exposed to direct sunlight (a beach in summer, for example).

• Places exposed to excessive heat, humidity, or extreme variation of

temperature and humidity.

• Places exposed to sand or dust.

• Near a fire.

• Near any volatile materials.

• Near a heater, cooler, or humidifier.

• Places exposed to excessive moisture.

• Places exposed to vibrations.

• Inside a car.

• Near a magnetic field.

■ Do not shake the flash or subject it to shocks.

■ Do not leave the flash unused for a long period of time. This may cause

battery leakage.

■ Do not touch any of the flash's internal parts.It may cause trouble.

■ Do not use the flash for extended periods as this can cause the flash to

become excessively hot. Do not touch the flash when it is hot.

BATTERY HANDLING

■ This flash uses four AA alkaline batteries, AA nickel metal hydride batteries

or AA NiCd batteries. (Olympus brand AA nickel metal hydride batteries are

recommended.)

■ Do not use AA manganese batteries or AA lithium batteries. Besides

shortening battery life, manganese batteries may overheat and damage the

camera.

■ Use the batteries correctly. Incorrect use of batteries can cause fluid leak,

heat generation, or other damage. When replacing batteries, be sure to

load them correctly.

■ The batteries may be temporarily disabled when exposed to cold

temperatures.

Try to keep the flash and batteries warm when using the flash in a cold

environment. Batteries that are weak in cold temperatures will be restored

under normal temperatures.

■ Sweat, oil, and so on, can prevent a battery's terminals from making

electrical contact. To avoid this, wipe both terminals before loading the

battery.

■ Keep spare batteries on hand when going on a long trip. New batteries may

be difficult or impossible to obtain abroad.

■ When using nickel metal hydride batteries or NiCd batteries, make sure to

charge them fully with the correct battery charger.

■ Read instructions carefully before handling nickel metal hydride batteries or

NiCd batteries.

■ Dispose of the old batteries in an ecologically and legally satisfactory

manner in your local areas.
