Notes on replacing the batteries:
• Make sure there is no film loaded. Switch off power
before replacing the battery.
• If the battery is replaced with a film already loaded,
the camera enters the starting mode. It will assume
the film has been just loaded and will advance
several frames. The "V will appear on the LCD
panel.
• If the battery is replaced at the end of the film roll,
the camera may not detect the film, and the frame
counter indication may not appear on the LCD
panel. Press the auxiliary rewind button to rewind
the film, and remove the film.
• Battery performance may temporarily deteriorate in
low temperatures, but it will recover in normal
temperature.
• Keep spare batteries on hand for convenience when
shooting outdoors or while traveling.
• When the camera is in a bag, make sure the main
switch is off: otherwise, battery power may be
wasted if the shutter release button is pushed
accidentally.
