• The unit, the flash tube and accessories may become very hot during and after use!
To avoid injuries, handle with isolating cloth or wait until parts have cooled down.
• Never flash into the eyes of a subject without warning. Close use may affect eyesight.
• There is high voltage and there can be high currents, so please apply all the usual
safety precautions when handling the unit.
• Protect the flashhead and the power pack when used in humid conditions, but
ensure ventilation for cooling!
• Flash cables must be connected correctly before switching on the power pack.
• Acclimatizing: If the unit has been exposed to very cold conditions, sudden exposure
to warm or humid air may cause condensation and malfunction.
• Prevent direct sunlight, which might heat up the head and the power pack.
• Do not open the unit. In the event of damage, apparent failure, or a defect flash tube,
please contact the Elinchrom Service Centre.
• Flash tubes and modelling lamps may generate high pressure during operation.
Explosions may occur with aged flash tubes and incorrect fuse / halogen lamp
combinations. For this reason the flash tube is covered with a glass dome. In case of
a damaged flash tube or a broken security cover the flashhead must be immediately
unplugged from the power pack and sent to an authorized Elinchrom customer
service.
• Only lamp connectors with immaculate contacts must be used, burned or/and
corroded contacts may cause explosions in the area of connectors and lamp
sockets.
• Do not route cables across the studio floor if possible, so that damage is prevented.
If routing across the studio floor cannot be avoided, then it must be ensured that
vehicles, ladders, etc. do not damage cables. Damaged cables and cases must be
immediately replaced by customer service.
