PRECAUTIONS ON BATTERY • This camera is powered by one "2CR5"-type lithium battery. • Inserting or handling the battery improperly may result in leakage, heat generation or explosion. Be sure to insert the battery with its (+) or (-) side facing correctly as indicated in the chamber. • When not using the camera for an extended period of time, remove the battery from the camera and keep it somewhere beyond reach of small children. An old battery is apt to leak and can cause damage to the battery chamber. • Never try to break up, or recharge the battery, or throw old ones into fire; they may explode. • The battery may not function properly in low temperatures, although it depends on the type and brand. 0 0 eQ • Just to be safe, carry a spare battery when shooting outdoors or on a trip. • When storing the camera in a bag or a case, make sure the main switch is turned off, to avoid accidental shutter release and unnecessary battery consumption. • When the built-in flash (RTF) is used continuously, the battery may heat slightly, but it does not mean the battery is faulty; it is one of the battery's characteristics. • Battery life (according to number of rolls of film used and use of bulb mode): Normal temperature Without RTF Approx. 150 rolls With RTF (used for 50% of exposures) Approx. 40 rolls With RTF (used for every exposure) Approx. 20 rolls Bulb exposure time (at normal temperature) Approx. 10 hours • Under Pentax testing conditions • The number of rolls is based on use of 24 exposure film. 59 •

PRECAUTIONS
ON
BATTERY
•
This
camera
is
powered
by
one
"2CR5"-type
lithium
battery.
•
Inserting
or
handling
the
battery
improperly
may
result
in
leakage,
heat
generation
or
explosion.
Be
sure
to
insert
the
battery
with
its
(+)
or
(-)
side
facing
correctly
as
indicated
in
the
chamber.
•
When
not
using
the
camera
for
an
extended
period
of
time,
remove
the
battery
from
the
camera
and
keep
it
somewhere
beyond
reach
of
small
children.
An
old
battery
is
apt
to
leak
and
can
cause
damage
to
the
battery
chamber.
•
Never
try
to
break
up,
or
recharge
the
battery,
or
throw
old
ones
into
fire;
they
may
explode.
•
The
battery
may
not
function
properly
in
low
temperatures,
although
it
depends
on
the
type
and
brand.

eQ
•
Just
to
be
safe,
carry
a
spare
battery
when
shooting
outdoors
or
on
a
trip.
•
When
storing
the
camera
in
a
bag
or
a
case,
make
sure
the
main
switch
is
turned
off,
to
avoid
accidental
shutter
release
and
unnecessary
battery
consumption.
•
When
the
built-in
flash
(RTF)
is
used
continuously,
the
battery
may
heat
slightly,
but
it
does
not
mean
the
battery
is
faulty;
it
is
one
of
the
battery's
characteristics.
•
Battery
life
(according
to
number
of
rolls
of
film
used
and
use
of
bulb
mode):
Normal
temperature
Without
RTF
Approx.
150
rolls
With
RTF
(used
for
50%
of
exposures)
Approx.
40
rolls
With
RTF
(used
for
every
exposure)
Approx.
20
rolls
Bulb
exposure
time
(at
normal
temperature)
Approx.
10
hours
•
Under
Pentax
testing
conditions
•
The
number
of
rolls
is
based
on
use
of
24
exposure
film.
