• Rubber Mat
This is a rubber mat to protect your hand
from the tripod socket and make holding the grip
easier.
1 Battery Loading
As this camera will not operate without bat­
teries, batteries must be loaded before checking the
operation. Six penlight batteries loaded in the grip
are all that are used for film drive, light metering
and recording. First unfold the grip for loading the
batteries. Insert the edge of a coin into the slot on
the bottom part of the grip and rotate it to
"OPEN". The cover of the battery compartment
will come off. Load the batteries correctly accord­
ing to the chart on the inside of the grip. Cover
the compartment making sure of its direction and
return the lock to the "CLOSE" position.
* Do not force past the "OPEN" or "CLOSE"
position.
It cannot be locked if the cover is facing the
wrong way. All penlight batteries can be used.
However, be sure all the same brand of batteries
are used. For photography in cold places. Alkaline
batteries or Ni-Cd batteries are highly recommend-
