Tips for Better  Results
 Faulty insertion of the battery will result in an incorrect ex-
posure.
  *  Only mercury batteries may be used. Silver batteries etc'
      will not give a correct exposure'
  *  Before inserting the mercury battery, wipe  it well with a
     clean dry cloth.
   *  The mercury battery lasts for approximately one year, so
     please be sure to exchange it then. A good idea would
    be to change  it on your birthday as a reminder'   lt  is
    dangerous to throw the battery into the fire or try to take
         it apart.
   *  Always remove the battery if you do not use the camera
      for a long period of time.
   *     lf it is hard to remove the battery from the compartment,
     push it gently with your finger as shown in the chart (Fig'
    3)
 Batteries  for use:
 JIS H-C 1.35 V, Mallory PX 675, Eveready EPX 675  or
 equivalent.
