The flexible arm consists of seven 1-inch (2.5 cm) links covered by a foam

rubber sleeve. You can bend the flexible arm in any direction, but do not force

it beyond the point of resistance (or the links will separate). If you want to take

the arm off or apart, you can bend it beyond the point of resistance, until the

links separate. The links can easily be re-connected by pushing them together

until they snap in.

6 Before diving, take a test picture in a darker area (the flash may not fire in

direct sunlight). Check that both the flash-ready light of the camera and the

orange-ready light of the flash comes on in less than 12 seconds.

7 The maximum reach of the flash depends on the reflection, angle, color of the

object, visibility, and the amount of ambient sunlight. The brightness of the

flash has been set for the shooting distance of the camera. The best pictures

are taken with a close-up lens from 2 - 4 ft (60cm - 1.2m). Good pictures

without a close-up lens are taken from 4 - 6 ft (1.2 - 1.8m). The most common

error is over-flashing on bright, close-by objects. The optimal reach of the flash

has been set to 6 ft (1.8m) in very clear water and depths below 40 ft (12m). It

is not intended to illuminate the background, or seascapes, beyond 8 ft (2.4m).

Tip: To prevent overflashing close up objects, use the optional Diffuser (item# SL968). The

Diffuser pushes on to the front of the flash head and reduces light output by 60%.1

Turn flash ON.

TEST flash when

flash-ready light is on.

Important: Do not force switch beyond stop point
