2.2.2 Replacing batteries (Fig. 1)
The batteries are exhausted if the recycling time
(elapsing from the triggering of a full-power flash,
e.g. in the M mode, to the moment the flash ready
indicator lights up again) exceeds 60 seconds.

Turn off the mecablitz by its main switch.
Slide the battery compartment cover in the
2
direction of the arrow and fold open.
• Insert the batteries lengthwise in conformity with
the indicated battery symbols and close the bat-

When loading batteries ensure correct pola-

may destroy the flash unit!
Replace all batteries at a time and make
sure that the batteries are of the same brand

Exhausted batteries must not be thrown in
the dustbin! Help protect the environment
and dispose of exhausted batteries at the
appropriate collecting points.

down to its bottom position (Fig. 2).
If your mecablitz is not going to be used for
an extended period of time, we recommend
