Power Supply
Plug the power cord into the back of the flash unit. Before plugging the power cord
into the wall socket, make certain that the power switch is set to the OFF (O)
position. The Glamour Flash is designed to automatically flash, if necessary, when
turned o. The resistive dump will continue to reduce any remaining energy while the
unit is o. This is a safety feature and cannot be disabled.
Note: The Glamour Flash unit is designed to work on 110-120V 50/60Hz AC current.
Power Switch
Turn the power switch to the ON (I) position. The flash will sound a beep and the
LCD will show the current flash power setting. We recommend charging the flash unit
for one hour prior to its initial use and after an extended period of inactivity (more
than two weeks). If the unit is left unused for a few months, or the unit has been used
predominantly at low power settings, we recommend that the power be increased to
the maximum and the unit left switched on (with the modeling lamp OFF) for at least
30 minutes, to help preserve the life of the capacitors.

Flash Settings
Flash Power Output
The flash power output is variable over a four f/stop range (five f/stops) from full power
to 1/16 power in 1/10 f/stop increments. The power is displayed on the LCD screen.
Minimum setting is 2.0 and the maximum is 6.0. Pressing the up and down touch-pad
buttons under the LCD changes the value by 0.1 f-stop (a total of 40 values). If the
current value is 5.6 and you want to reduce the power by one stop, set the power to 4.6.
