Inserting Batteries

The EF-42 can be used with lithium, alkaline, and nickel-metal hy-
dride (NiMH) batteries. Choose NiMH batteries for reduced fl ash
charging times and longer battery life.

top of the cover and push the cover slightly
in to release the latch, then slide the cover
down to open it.
Q Before opening the cover, be sure the ON/OFF
switch is in the OFF position.
2
Insert four AA batteries in the orientation
shown on the inside of the cover. Close the
cover.
Q Although the battery chamber is designed to
prevent the batteries being inserted incor-
rectly, failure to insert the batteries in the cor-
rect orientation could result in malfunction.

fl ash starts charging. The fl ash is ready for
use when charging is complete and the
ready lamp lights.

tion can be restored by pressing the camera shutter button halfway
