3 Preparing the flash unit for use
Attaching the flash unit to the camera
The flash unit can be attached to the camera and operated with:
- a synch cable 45-47
2)
.
- a standard foot 301
1)
and a synch cable SCA 300A
1)
- an SCA 3xx adapter
1)
and a synch cable SCA 300A
1)
- an SCA 3xx2 adapter
1)
and a synch cable SCA 3045
3)
.
Be sure to switch off the flash unit by its main switch prior to mounting
or removing the connecting components! Before mounting or removing
the flash unit, switch off both the camera and the flash unit!
Mounting the flash unit:
• Push the SCA adapter or standard foot 301 into the camera’s accessory
shoe and lock in place with the knurled nut.
• Fasten the camera bracket with the bracket screw to the camera’s tripod
socket. For medium- and large-format cameras we recommend the use of
the 70-35 bracket (optional extra).
• Insert the camera bracket into the mount ብ of the bracket holder ቤ until it
is audibly engaged.
• Secure the camera bracket with the locking screw.
• Connect the synch or connecting cable to the flash unit and camera or
adapter.
4 Power supply
The flash unit can be operated with:
• 6 alkaline manganese batteries IEC LR 6 (AA-type) in the battery holder
45-39
2)
(optional extra), or
• Metz NiMh battery pack 45-56
3)
, or
• Power Pack P76 (optional extra)
Do not use lithium cells! Their higher voltage would damage the flash

unit’s electronic system. Only use the permitted power sources (see
above). Warranty claims for faults and damage to the flash unit arenot
accepted if they were caused by the use of accessories from other
manufacturers.
Battery replacement
Press the two locking keys of the battery holder
2)
and pull the holder out of
the flash unit (Fig 4a). To return the battery holder insert it into the flash unit’s
handle-mount grip and press it until it audibly locks in place.
Exchanging the batteries
Press together the two smooth locking keys of the dismantled battery holder
(optional extra) and remove the lid (Fig. 4b). Insert new batteries in confor-
mity with the polarity symbols indicated on the bottom of the holder. Return
the lid and lock in again.
Mixed up battery poles may destroy the flash unit.. Replace all batte-
ries at a time and make sure that the batteries are of the same brand
and type and have the same capacity! Spent batteries must not be
thrown into the domestic waste! Help keep the environment clean and
discard spent batteries at corresponding collecting points.
New NiMH batteries and those that have not been in use for a long
period of time can be almost completely flat. If this is the case, the
charger does not always recognise the NiMH battery state of charge.
This results in the NiMH battery only being partially charged. If the
partially charged battery is then inserted in the flash unit, the battery
indicator signalises a discharged battery or the flash unit does not
reach flash readiness.
In this case the NiMH battery must be recharged several times in suc-
cession (approx. 2-5 charging operations).
The battery must be removed from the charger briefly between char-
ging operations.
