The self-timer lets you get into your picture.
To use this feature, place the camera on a tripod or other
steady support. If you attach the camera to a table tripod,
be sure the camera is positioned over one of the tripod's
legs for proper support.
Frame your picture in the viewfinder and press the shutter
button halfway to be sure you get the green "good pic-
ture" symbol. Then release the shutter button.
Slide the self-timer switch all the way down (a). You now
have 12 seconds to get into your picture.
During the first 10 seconds, the camera will beep and you
will see a flashing red light (b) on the front of the camera.
Two seconds before the camera takes the picture, the red
light will stay on and the beeps will become a steady sig-
nal to remind you to hold still and smile.
After the camera has taken the picture, it will not eject the
film until you slide the self-timer switch up (c). Do not
close the camera before you slide the switch up.
If you want to stop the 12-second countdown, slide the
switch up (c) to turn off the timer.
Note: When the self-timer switch is on there is a green cir-
cle visible in the control panel.
