Use only alkaline batteries. Don't open their compart uselessly, as the
cover is likely to loosen with time. Be careful when changing batteries,
the metal contacts are fitted in plastic. When using the wide accessory,
force it only by its "wings". Keep both camera and flash OFF when mounting
or unmounting. When mounted, be careful to undue pressure on the flash, as
this could break the SCA 320/321 connection. 

If you use the accessory grip for bigger batteries, remember the connection
with the metal base that is to be fitted under the camera base plate is
held by a simple screw only and there is no safety lock (as there is in 45
and 60 Metz series). 

All this can look paranoia, but all that happened to me in more than ten
years of hard use of this very useful flash. I own 5 of'em now and use on
all cameras of mine with a shoe. 

I believe it is manifactured OEM by Popular together with T32 flash, I
wonder whether their circuits are the same?
