Types of Batteries

This flash unit uses four AA-size batteries of the same type,
as shown below.
- Alkaline battery (LR6)
- Lithium battery (FR6)
- Nickel-Metal Hydride battery (Ni-MH)
(Nickel manganese (Ni-Mn) and nickel cadmium
(Ni-Cd) batteries cannot be used.)
For information about recycling times and total
number of flashes, refer to "Specifications" on page
64.
If the indicators on the LCD panel or the ready lamp
does not light up, the batteries may be exhausted or
not inserted correctly. Verify the orientation of the
batteries or, if the indicators and ready lamp still do
not light up, replace them with new batteries.
If you let the flash unit fire successively using
lithium batteries, the batteries will overheat,
activating a safety circuit that temporarily disables
the flash unit. If this occurs, rest the flash unit so
that the temperature of the batteries returns to
normal.
