2. Preparing the mecablitz for use

2.1 Mounting the mecablitz

2.1.1 Mounting the mecablitz on the camera

Turn off the camera and the mecablitz by
their main switch!
• Turn the knurled nut against the mecablitz hous-
ing until the stop point is reached.
• Slide the mecablitz foot completely into the
camera's accessory shoe.
• Turn the knurled nut against the camera body as
far as possible, thereby clamping the mecablitz.
If the camera does not have a locking hole the
spring-loaded locking pin retracts into the
adapter case so that it does not damage the
surface.

2.1.2 Removing the mecablitz from the camera

Turn off the camera and the mecablitz by
their main switch.
• Turn the knurled nut against the mecablitz hous-
ing until the stop point is reached.
• Withdraw the mecablitz from the camera's
accessory shoe.

2.2 Power supply

2.2.1 Suitable batteries

The mecablitz can be operated with any of the
following batteries:
• 4 NiCad batteries, type IEC KR 15/51 (KR6, size
AA). They permit very fast recycling and are eco-
nomical in use because they are rechargeable.
• 4 nickel-metal-hydride batteries, type IEC HR6
(size AA). They have a significantly higher
capacity than NiCad batteries and are less
harmful to the environment (no cadmium).
• 4 alkaline-manganese dry-cell batteries, type IEC
LR6 (size AA/AM3). Maintenance-free power
source for moderate power requirements.
• 4 lithium batteries, type IEC FR6 L91 (size AA).
Maintenance-free high-capacity power source
with a low self-discharge rate.
Remove the batteries from the mecablitz if
the flash unit is not going to be used for an
extended period of time.
