Before use, open the roller cover
and inspect the processing rollers.
Clean them if necessary (see
Cleaning the rollers). Slide the
holder into the back of the
camera, just as you would a
standard film holder. If your
camera has slide locks, use them
in addition to the spring back; the
locks fit into slots on the sides of
the holder.
1 Move the control arm to L (2).
2 Hold the envelope as shown (3)
and insert the cap end into the
holder. Be sure that the side
marked THIS SIDE TOWARD LENS
faces the lens. Do not hold the
envelope by the end when first
inserting it into the holder, as you
may buckle the envelope (4) and
damage the film.
Do not press on the area
marked DO NOT PRESS HERE,
where the pod of developer
chemicals is located.
3 Push the envelope in halfway (5),
then shift your grip to the end,
and push it in the rest of the way
(6). When the envelope is fully
inserted the tabs (6-j) will be
visible in the recess along the
edge of the film holder.

1 Gently withdraw the envelope
from the holder until it comes to a
firm stop (7). It will come out
almost 6 inches (15cm), then stop.
The negative will remain inside
the holder, ready for exposure.
To prevent possible light leak,
the envelope should not be
removed for longer than
necessary. If outdoors, protect the
envelope from bright sunlight and
also from bending in the wind.
2 Lightly run your thumb and
forefinger over the area marked
DO NOT PRESS HERE (8). It
should be perfectly flat and smooth.
If you can feel the pod, the negative
was withdrawn accidentally with
the envelope. Push the envelope
in again, withdraw it, and check
again.
