>
For safety reasons, never operate the monolight without the safety glass in place! To protect eyes
from UV radiation, either a UV- coated safety glass or a UV- coated flash tube must be used. If the
safety glass is defective, remove the battery immediately. Do not touch any parts on the front face.
>
Before start-up, the monolight must be mounted on a stand or suspended from a suitable mount-
ing. When a lamp is suspended, it must be secured to the stand adapter by tightening the retaining
screw. Use only the correct stand with a 16 mm pin.
>
Filters or diffusers should not be fastened directly on to flash tubes, LED modelling lamps, or safety
glasses!
>
Make sure the cooling slots on the monolight are not covered or obstructed!
>
After use, allow the monolight time to cool before packing it!
>
The battery must not be left in a location where the temperature is constantly below −10° C.
>
Remove the battery before you clean or service the unit!
>
Monolights that have fallen over or been damaged must be checked by a competent specialist before
they are put back into service!
>
To avoid danger from electric shock, never open a monolight! There may still be dangerous volt-
ages inside the unit. Units should only be opened, and all service and repair carried out by author-
ised broncolor service stations. Incorrect assembly can cause dangerous contact voltages, even
on connected units.
>
When using Siros L in conjunction with a stand, use a sandbag if the stand is extended more than
2 metres.
>
Remove the protective cover before use!
>
Never put the unit in its case when it is hot!
Shipping instructions:
>
When transporting a monolight, use the original broncolor packing. Before shipping flash tubes,
halogen lamps and safety glasses, fit the transport protection elements (protective covers) supplied
by us. If the transport protection elements are not all available, remove the flash tubes, halogen
lamps and safety glasses from the lamps, and pack and ship them separately!
