Film Tip Position Mark - Minolta WEATHERMATIC 35DL Instruction Manual

Film tip position mark

4. Lay film flat between the guide rails and
extend the tip of the film over the take-up
drum to the film tip position mark. If the
film extends to far, gently push the excess
back into the cartridge.
5. Snap the pressure plate down to its
normal position.
6. Close the back cover. To securely close
the back cover, use both hands to squeeze it
closed and check that the back-cover release
has returned to its original position.
• If the film is not loaded correctly, the
camera's motor will run for about between 5
and 10 seconds and then stop; the frame
counter will continue to show "0". Open the
back cover and reload the film correctly.
• If the back-cover release doesn't return to
its original position, push it up with your
finger.
