6 The flash unit should never be submerged in liquid or exposed to rain, 
saltwater or moisture unless it is properly protected from the liquids 
and moisture. Underwater use requires a certified underwater housing.
 
If water or moisture gets inside the unit, this could cause the unit to catch on 
fire or cause an electric shock. In such instances you should immediately 
remove the batteries from the speedlight and then bring the unit to your 
local Nikon dealer or authorized service center for repair.
Note: electronic devices that are penetrated by water or moisture are often 
not economically repairable.
7 Do not use the unit in the presence of flammable or explosive gas. 
If the flash unit is operated in areas where there is a flammable gas, 
including propane, gasoline and dust, it could cause an explosion or fire.
8 Do not fire the flash unit directly at the driver of a moving car, as this 
could temporarily impair the driver’s vision and cause an accident.
9 Do not fire the flash unit directly into the eyes of someone that is at 
close range, as it could damage their eyes’ retinas. Never fire the flash unit 
closer than 1 meter from infants.
10 Do not fire the unit while the flash head is touching a person or object. 
Such use can result in the person being burned, and/or their clothes 
igniting from the heat of the flash’s firing.
11 Keep small accessories out of the reach of children to avoid the 
possibility of the accessory being swallowed. If an accessory is 
accidentally swallowed, immediately consult with a doctor.
12 Use only the batteries specified in this user’s manual. Batteries other 
than those specified could leak corrosive liquids, explode or catch on fire or 
otherwise not perform satisfactorily.
13 Non-rechargeable batteries such as manganese, alkaline-manganese 
and lithium batteries should never be charged in a battery charger 
because they could leak corrosive liquids, explode or catch on fire.
