• Flash systems store electrical energy in capacitors by applying high voltage.

• For your safety, never open or disassemble your flashes.

• Only an authorised service engineer should open or attempt to repair the units.

• For repairs, take them to your elinchrom agent.              

• Internal defect charge capacitors may explode whilst the unit is in use, never

   switch on a not proper working flash unit. 

• Flashtubes and modelling lamps in use are very hot!

• Never touch a flash tube or lamp before the unit cooled down and is disconnected from the mains.

• Do not fire flashes from short distance (less than 1m) directed to a person and avoid looking  

 

   directly into the flashlight!

• Keep distance to flammable materials.

• A thermal cut out protects internal electronic components. At high ambient temperatures or 

   after rapid or frequent use, the thermal cut out may interrupt the capacitor charge. The display

   will show “ER” .
