16 Troubleshooting
Should the flash unit fail to function properly or meaningless con-
tent appear on the flash unit display panel, switch the flash unit off
with the main switch
for approximately 10 seconds. Check the
camera settings and make sure the foot of the flash unit is mounted
correctly in the camera’s accessory shoe.
Replace the batteries with new or freshly charged batteries.
The flash unit should function normally again once it is switched
back on. If this is not the case, contact your local dealer.
