benzene, or nail polish remover.
g
This product is not water resistant.
Keep it away from rain, snow, humidity,
and general moisture.
g
Should the unit sustain physical
damage, do not touch any exposed
interior metal parts. If touched, they
may generate an electric shock or cause
a malfunction. Promptly remove the
batteries and take the product to an
authorized service center for repair.
g
If you detect excessive heat, smoke, or
a burning smell coming from the flash,
immediately stop operation and remove
the power source to prevent the
