PREPARATION FOR USE - continued
Prior to Shooting
Fold out the rewind crank and turn it gently in the direction
of the engraved arrow until you feel a slight tension; this
tension indicates that there is no more slack in the film car-
tridge. (Be sure not to rewind the film back into the cartridge.)
Advance the film and make two blank exposures to dispose
of the initial portion of the film exposed during loading (for
film advance operation, see page 11). While advancing the
film, check that the rewind crank turns in the direction oppo-
site the arrow. Crank rotation indicates that the film has been
loaded properly and is being advanced. Then, fold the crank
flat for storage.
After advancing the film two frames to dispose of the initial
portion of the leader, the frame counter at the upper right of
the camera will indicate “O”; now, advance the film one more
frame to prepare the camera for taking the first exposure.
