Unloading The Film - Pentax PROGRAM PLUS Manual

UNLOADING THE FILM
When the last frame of the film has been exposed, the film should
be rewound into the cartridge before unloading from the camera.
Do not force the wind lever beyond the number of frames indicated
on the film cartridge.
To unload a cartridge
• Depress the film rewind button.
• Turn the rewind crank in the direction of the arrow to rewind
the film until you no longer feel the tension.
• After rewinding, lift up sharply on the film rewind knob to
open the camera back and remove the film cartridge.
Note: Should you erroneously open the back before rewinding, do
not leave it open. Close it immediately. The last few frames may be
ruined by direct light exposure, but the majority of frames on the
roll may still be unharmed. Whenever possible. It is also advisable
to take the same pictures again with a new film.
