SECURITY ADVISE

The maximum modelling lamp wattage for all Litemotiv softboxes is limited to 650 W.
Ensure that the Litemotiv is correctly assembled and locked to the flash unit.
The unit, the flashtube and accessories may become very hot during and after use!
To avoid injuries, handle with isolating cloth or wait until parts have cooled down.
Even though we use fire retardant materials; the fabric should never get in contact
with the hot flashtube or the modelling lamp.
The metal Speedring Bracket may heat up enormously when the flash unit is used
at maximum flash and modelling lamp power levels. Please wait until the parts have
cooled down, before packing away.
Always switch the flash unit off before fitting or exchanging reflectors and softboxes.
Ensure that the ventilation system of flash units is working correctly.
Double check that the internal fabric diffuser is correctly fitted and does not make
contact with the hot flash tube and modelling lamp.
The reflective surface is very close to the modelling lamp / flashtube. The fabric, can
be damaged by excessive heat. Lower the modelling lamp power and reduce the number
of flashes per minute to avoid overheating.
Ensure that no external hot light sources or other hot objects are directed to the outer
fabrics of this softbox. This may damage or even burn the fabrics.
Old or dirty diffusers may change the colour temperature and should be replaced
after some time.
