Maintenance.
Before maintenance are to be done, the following safety precautions must be strictly
observed:
Before replacing the flash tube or the modeling light, the flash unit must be switched
off. Then you must wait at least 5 minutes for safety reasons to ensure the complete
discharge of the capacitors via the internal safety circuit. Furthermore, before
replacing the flash tube, you must wait until it has cooled down.
To remove the glass dome, please refer to the instructions described above. The
flash tube and modelling lamp must not be touched during this procedure (danger!).
Always use extreme caution when handling an exposed flash tube due to the
existing overpressure.
If the glass of the flash tube is broken, do not touch the electrodes in any case when
you are replacing the flash tube! In this case you must use fully insulated pliers to
remove the damaged flash tube!
Replacement of flash tubes
For replacement pull the flash tube carefully out of the plug connector and replace it with a
new one (to be ordered from PRI
O
LITE) by plugging the three contacts into the sockets.
Before using the unit once again the glass dome is to be mounted for safety reasons.
Regular inspection and repairs
Except for the work described in the “Maintenance” section, users may not perform any
repairs on flash systems; these are to be carried out exclusively by authorized customer
service personnel.
In accordance with country-specific safety regulations, inspection and maintenance of
electrical systems and devices should be carried out at regular intervals. We recommend an
annual inspection of the units to ensure operational safety and reliability and to maintain the
value of the system.
Return to customer service
To prevent damage during transport and to ensure optimal protection of the units, we
recommend to ship the devices only in the original packaging.

Disused and defective units must be disposed of in the electronic recycling.
