AE adjustment level check and
adjustment
20
(Key operator code)
Check that the AE adjustment level is at the standard level. If not,
set it to the standard level.

AE sensor gain adjustment
47
The AE sensor gain is automatically adjusted.

Copy quality adjustment
46
Follow the exposure adjustment procedure.
@
(Note) When simulation 46 is executed, the dirt correction
reference is registered.
Therefore, before executing simulation 46, clean the optical
system and check and adjust the copy picture quality. (In all
modes.)
If simulation is cancelled without checking and adjusting in all
modes, the process control is not performed properly.
