LOADING BATTERIES This camera needs two penlight (AA-size, 1.5-V) Alkaline batteries of the same brand to function properly. Manganese batteries are not recommended as their life is shorter. Do not use Ni-Cd batteries. Because the battery discharges a small amount of energy even when not in use, those supplied with your camera may be slightly below full capacity as it has taken some time to reach you. • Open the battery-chamber cover by sliding it in the direction of the arrow; use a finger-nail in the groove to push and raise the cover. • Insert two batteries into the chamber so that their (+) and (-) marks face those indicated on the back of the cover. Close the cover by pushing it back. Battery check As illustrated, turn the mode selector to BATT. C. so that the white dot is aligned with the red-line index. If the battery check lamp glows, the batteries are properly loaded; if not, they are incorrectly loaded or the battery power is insufficient. When the film advancing time gets apparently slower, it indicates that the batteries are getting weaker. Replace the batteries with fresh ones. 5•
