Set the wireless mode of the external flash directly
connected to the camera to [MASTER] or [CONTROL].

On the wireless remote flash unit, set the wireless flash
mode to [SLAVE] and set the channel to the same channel
as the flash directly connected to the camera. Then, place
it at the desired location.
3
Confirm that both flashes are fully charged, and then take
a picture.
When using an external flash away from the camera, attach the Hot Shoe

Adapter F (2; optional) to the bottom of the external flash, and then
connect these with the Extension Cord F5P (3; optional). The Off-
Camera Shoe Adapter F can be mounted to your tripod using the tripod
screw.
