WARNING
Do not leave
• Use two CR123A or DL123A lithium batteries

• Change the batteries well before the end of their life and prepare spare batteries
before important photographic occasions.
• Turn the camera power off when changing batteries
Turn the camera power off before changing batteries and insert the batteries with
and ends positioned correctly.
• Stains on the battery poles may cause lack of contact. Wipe the batteries well
with a dry cloth before installing.
• Use fresh batteries at low temperatures
Battery power diminishes at extremely low temperatures and the camera may not
function properly with old batteries. Use a fresh set of batteries at low
temperatures, keep spare batteries warm, and use them alternately.
• Film advance speed lowers and number of usable film rolls becomes less at low
temperatures. However, battery power may recover when the temperature
returns to normal.
• Do not throw batteries into a fire or short circuit batteries
Do not throw batteries into a fire. Do not short, disassemble, heat or charge
batteries.
