              a. Side mounting type.
              b. D-irect mounting type fitting into Accessory Mounting Brachet. (See
                      illustrations above.)
Check the follorving:
                       l. Be sure the terminal of the flash unit is in contact with the insul-
                  ated button in the Accessory Mounting Braeket.
              2. Always insert flash lamp after flash unit has been mounted.
