3. Preparing the camera
CAUTION!
Pull the contact breaker out of the battery compartment. This might need a little force. Only
then will the camera’s power supply activate so that the camera can be used.
3.1 Opening and closing the camera
Open:
Loosen the locking clip on the right side of the camera. Grasp the back of the lock with two fingers
and pull it away from the camera until the lock pops open.
Close:
Close the camera and place the locking clip on the two hooks on the side. Then press the locking clip
backwards.
3.2 Inserting the batteries
CAUTION!
The camera must be turned off before inserting new batteries! Please use either disposable or
rechargeable batteries, do not mix different types of batteries. For black night photography,
please replace all batteries with fully charged batteries.
Battery compartment:
Open the camera. Press the EJECT button at the bottom right. The battery
compartment now extends about 2 cm out of the bottom of the camera. A mechanism prevents it from
falling out. To remove the compartment completely, pull it straight down with some force.
