6 Notes on batteries Usable batteries Use CR123A (3V) lithium batteries. • Do not use any other type of batteries. • Non-rechargeable. Never attempt to recharge these batteries in a battery charger. Otherwise, they may explode. • Depending on battery specifications, when these batteries become hot, the safety circuits are activated, cutting off power. This often occurs when the flash unit is operated in the repeating flash mode. Battery power will recover when the temperature returns to normal. Notes on handling batteries • When installing the battery, turn off the power of the Speedlight and never reverse the polarity of the batteries. • If the battery terminals become soiled, remove dirt and smudges before use, as these may cause damage. • If exhausted batteries are used at low temperatures, the Commander or Speedlight units may not work properly. • When taking photographs in low temperatures, use fresh batteries, and keep a set of spares in a warm place (e.g. a coat pocket). • Battery power tends to weaken as the temperature drops. At low temperatures, flash capacity decreases and recycling takes longer. Battery power will recover if they are not used and allowed to return to normal temperature. • Do not throw used batteries into a fire. Do not short circuit, disassemble, heat or recharge a battery. Replacing the battery The low battery-power indicator blinks when the Commander SU-800's ready-light does not come on within approx. 30 seconds of the power being turned on or after the flash has fired. • Replace the battery. SPWEIERDELLIEGSHST R S ON/OFF When the SB-R200's battery power is weak, the green ready-light blinks after the power has been turned on or after the flash has fired. • Replace the battery. z Reference information 125
