2. Important safety information
WARNING
Danger of blinding and eye damage
The optical radiation of the LED lamp can blind the eyes and cause
after-vision, if humans or animals look directly at the light source. This
can lead to accidents and eye damage.
Make sure that humans or animals do not look directly into the
illuminant and keep a safe distance of at least 2 m, if necessary use
diffusers between lamp and model or object. Do not use the lamp for
illumination purposes when shooting small children or babies.
WARNING
Danger of electric shock and fire hazard caused by short-circuit
or malfunction.
A short-circuit may, amongst others, be caused by defective cables
of by dampness or moisture. In case of a short-circuit the cable wires
may heat up to such an extent, that the insulation or even the wires
themselves will melt. This may cause fire.
