Symptoms
The view from the viewfinder
is not clear.
The spool does not turn when
winding the film.
Error Display in the Event of Incorrect Operation
In the event of unusual operation of the camera, [E] followed by double figures, e.g. [E-13], will
appear on the LCD panel to indicate an error. When this happens, the shutter cannot be released. In
this event, follow the instructions below.
If the first figure after [E] is
"1" or "3"
If the second figure after [E]
is "1", "2" or "3"
If [PErr] is displayed
In rare cases, the camera may not operate correctly due to static electricity. This can be remedied by taking the batteries
out and putting them back again.
Causes
The diopter is not adjusted.
No batteries have been installed.
This indicates camera breakdown, irrespective of the second figure. You should take the
camera to your local Pentax service center.
If there is a film in the camera, wind to the end and remove the film. Press the shutter and if
the error display disappears, the camera is ready for use. We recommend, however, that
you have the camera checked at your local Pentax service center. If there is no film in the
camera, open and close the back cover. If the error display disappears, the camera is
ready for use.
Take the viewfinder out and put it back two or three times. If the error display disappears,
the camera is ready for use.
Remedies
Adjust the diopter.
Install the batteries.
