• Remove the battery (batteries) and store the camera with a desiccant. If you do not intend to use the camera for a long time, store it after removing the battery (batteries) to protect the camera from battery leakage. • When storing the camera, it is recommended to store it with a desiccant in a plastic bag. Note, however, that storing the leather camera cases in plastic bags may cause the leather to deteriorate. Keep the batteries in a cool, dry place. • A desiccant will lose its effect after absorbing a certain amount of moisture. Occasionally replace it with new one. • Leaving the camera unused for a long period of time will allow mold to grow and result in malfunction. To prevent this, insert a battery (batteries) once a month and release the shutter a few times. Handling the Batteries WARNING Keep batteries out of the reach of children. If a battery is swallowed, immediately contact a physician. • Use the following battery (batteries): 1 One 3V lithium battery (CR-1/3N type) 2 Two 1.55V silver-oxide batteries (SR44 type) 3 Two 1.5V alkaline batteries (LR44 type) • Before important photographic occasions, check and replace the battery (batteries) well before exhaustion, or have spare batteries handy. • Turn the power to the camera off when replacing battery (batteries). When changing the battery (batteries), fold the film-advance lever and insert the new battery (new batteries) with the + and - ends positioned correctly. • The supplied battery is for checking the operation of the camera at the time of purchase. It may have a shorter life than a new one. • Stains on the battery poles may cause lack of contact. Wipe the batteries with a dry cloth before inserting. • Use a fresh battery (batteries) when using the camera in very cold temperature. The camera may not operate with exhausted batteries. It is recommended to carry spare batteries, and keep them warm for alternate use. • The number of film rolls that can be shot decreases in very cold temperatures. However, battery power may recover when the temperature returns to normal. • Do NOT throw batteries into a fire. Do NOT throw batteries into a fire, short-circuit, disassemble, heat or charge batteries. 49

• Remove the battery (batteries) and store the camera with a desiccant.
If you do not intend to use the camera for a long time, store it after removing the battery
(batteries) to protect the camera from battery leakage.
When storing the camera, it is recommended to store it with a desiccant in a plastic
bag. Note, however, that storing the leather camera cases in plastic bags may cause
the leather to deteriorate. Keep the batteries in a cool, dry place.
A desiccant will lose its effect after absorbing a certain amount of moisture. Occasion-
ally replace it with new one.
Leaving the camera unused for a long period of time will allow mold to grow and result
in malfunction. To prevent this, insert a battery (batteries) once a month and release
