Thermal cut-out
The SB-700 features a function that offers protection against damage
to the  ash panel and body from overheating. This function does not
stop the  ash head temperature rising. Be careful not to let the SB-700
overheat during continuous  ash use.
A temperature warning indicator appears when the temperature •
of the flash panel and body rises as a result of the flash being fired
numerous times in quick succession.
If the temperature continues to rise, the thermal cut-out indicator •
appears and all operations are suspended before the heat can
damage the flash panel and body.

Wait until the SB-700 cools down.•
Operation can be resumed once the warning is no longer displayed. •
On rare occasions, the thermal cut-out indicator might appear or •
disappear without the temperature changing depending on the
zoom head position. This is not a malfunction.
