TROUBLESHOOTING for details, refer to respective pages. What appears troublesome might be easily remedied. Here are some problems and their remedies. 1. The shutter cannot be released. • Is the power switch turned off? If so. turn it on. (See page 4.) • Are the batteries exhausted or are they loaded? Replace them or insert new batteries. (See page 41.) • Is your subject out of the focusing range? Shoot in the range of 1.35 meters (4.4 ft) to (infinity) for ordinary photography. (See page 14.) • Are you pressing the zooming lever? If so. release your fingers from the zooming lever, then shoot. (See page 61 • Is rewound film left inside? If so, replace it with a new roll. (See pages 18 and 8 -- 10.) • Is the camera set to the Interval Shooting mode? Cancel the Interval Shooting mode. 2. My printed pictures don't look very clear. • Did you position the autofocus frame (C ..-)) on your subject? (See page 14.) • Did you press the shutter release button gently while taking care not to obstruct the autofocus window with your fingers or hair? (See page 5.) • Are you shooting in a dark place using the Flash-On mode? As the shutter release speed is slow, you should avoid camera shake or subject movement. If slow-speed synchro is not necessary, shoot in the Auto mode. The flash fires at higher shutter speeds. (See pages 13 and 24.) 3. Zoom lens does not move. • Are you depressing the shutter release button? If so, the zoom lens cannot operate. Take your finger off the shutter release button. 8
