When the MC-36 Is Not in Use

When the MC-36 Is Not in Use
The MC-36 is not equipped with an off switch.
To reduce the drain on the batteries when the
MC-36 is not in use, end shooting and check
that the "TIMER ACTIVE" ( ), "SET" ( ), and "RE-
LEASE" ( ) indicators are not displayed (see
right). The drain on the batteries increases
when these indicators are fl ashing.
