First, open the camera back by sliding its safety lock to
the rear and lifting the film rewind knob as far as it will
go. Position the film cartridge or cassette in the film
chamber, which is located on the left-hand side, with the
film leader aligned along the film guide rails; then, push
the rewind knob down to hold the cartridge in place. Pull
the film leader out sufficiently for feeding into the film
take-up spool, and insert its end into any of the spool’s
slots. Rotate the take-up spool as shown in the illustration
so that the film passes under the spool with its emulsion
side (dull side) facing out. Make sure that the perfo
rations along the edges of the film mesh with the
sprockets. If necessary, release the shutter by pushing
the shutter release button, and stroke the film-advance
lever slowly to make sure that the leader winds smoothly
on the spool and that the film edge perforations engage
the film sprocket roller. When you are certain that the
film is being fed properly onto the spool and traveling
correctly along the film guide rails, close the camera
back by pressing it until it snaps into place.
