Load the battery by inserting the " contact first while holding down the battery in the bottom of the battery chamber. When loading or removing the battery, make certain that the main switch is set at OFF. In general use, the battery will last one year. Safety circuitry is built in the camera to keep the shutter from being released when the voltage of the battery becomes insufficient.

Therefore, when taking photographs, set the main switch to the "ON" position. The camera will not function unless it is set to "ON". If there is not sufficient voltage, the camera will not function, so check the battery as indicated below.

The main switch is also used when checking the battery. If the meter needle rests above the battery check index mark, there is sufficient voltage. If it is below the index mark, replace the battery as there is not enough voltage left in the battery for the camera to operate.

When the shutter lock lever around the shutter release button is turned to the "L" position, the shutter button will be locked to prevent unintentional shutter release. Keep the shutter release button locked while carrying the camera to prevent film waste. When the power level of the battery is insufficient, a safety mechanism will keep the shutter from being released. In that cold condition, the battery's power is reduced so some 10 seconds should be allowed after the battery is checked before taking a picture.

To load a cartridge of film into the camera, first open the camera's back cover. Pull up the rewind crank and the back cover will pop open.

Gently turn the film rewind crank clockwise in the direction of the arrow to take up the film slack. Then, advance the film a couple of times pressing the shutter button until the first exposure appears in the frame counter.

The frame counter is an additive type which counts one frame every time the film advance lever winds the film. When the camera's back cover is opened, the frame counter automatically resets itself to the "S" position. While rewinding film, the frame counter counts back the frame numbers.
