BATTERY
This camera uses a 3-volt lithium KODAK KCR 2 (or equivalent) Battery that
supplies power for all camera operations. This camera automatically turns off
after 1 minute.
Battery Indicator
When the battery symbol (22) “blinks,” you will need to replace the battery soon. When
the battery symbol is solid (non-blinking) and the shutter button does not operate,
replace the battery immediately.
Battery Tips:
• Keep a spare battery with you at all times. Lithium batteries perform
consistently until they suddenly die.
• Read and follow all warnings and instructions supplied by the battery manufacturer.
• Keep battery away from children.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, recharge or short circuit the battery, or subject it to
high temperature or fire.
• Store battery in its original packaging prior to use.

chamber . Do not force the film cassette into the film chamber.
➌
2. Close the film door (19) to start the auto-film advance. The LCD panel (10) will
show the total number of exposures (b). After you close the safety-interlock film
door, you cannot open the film door until the film is completely rewound into
the film cassette.

Using the Focus Lock
This camera automatically focuses on whatever is within the auto-focus circle of the
viewfinder eyepiece (15). To get a sharp photograph, make sure the auto-focus circle
is on your main subject. If you want to take a picture with the subject positioned
outside of the auto-focus circle, use the focus lock as follows:
1. Place the auto-focus circle (f) on the subject that you want focused in the picture.
2. Partially depress and hold the shutter button (1) until the focus/flash lamp (16)
glows green to lock in the focus position.
3. While still depressing the shutter button, move the camera until your subject is
where you want it within the viewfinder.
4. Press the shutter button completely down to take the picture.
Special Focusing Situations
Some subjects or scenes, such as those described below, are difficult for the auto-
focus system to detect correctly; even though the focus lamp may glow green, the
focus/exposure may not be correct. To insure proper focus in the following situations,
first lock the focus on another object at the same distance from you as your main
subject, then recompose your picture and press the shutter button.
• Subject is near a very bright area or object such as a table lamp(s).
• A very bright- or low-contrast area fills the center of the auto-focus circle of the
viewfinder.

Using the Self-Timer
1. Use a tripod (tripod socket [17]) or place the camera on another firm support.
2. Lift the lens cover/flash (2),
3. Press the enter/self-timer button (13) to the self-timer (23) position.
completely up.
➍
4. Press the shutter button (1). The self-timer lamp (4) will “blink” 10 seconds before
the picture is taken.
NOTE: If you want to stop the self-timer operation before the picture is taken, press
the self-timer button again or close the lens cover/flash.
Tips for Better Pictures
• Hold the camera steady when taking pictures
• Keep your pictures simple. Move close enough to your subject so it fills the
viewfinder but not closer than 2 ft (0.60 m).
• Take pictures at the subject’s level. Kneel down to take pictures of children and pets.
• Hold your camera vertically to capture tall, narrow subjects, such as a waterfall,
skyscraper, or single person.
• Add interest to your picture by framing it with a tree branch, window, or even the rails
of a fence.
• Keep the sun behind you for best subject illumination.

TAKING FLASH PICTURES
In dim light, such as indoors or outdoors in heavy shade or on dark overcast days, you
need flash. Your camera features automatic flash that fires when you need it. It also
provides automatic daylight fill flash under certain bright-light conditions where
shadows may exist. If the focus/flash lamp (16) “blinks” red, the flash is not fully
charged. Wait for the light to turn green before you take a picture.

Flash Tips
• Turn on room lights and have the subject face the lights to minimize
red eyes in pictures.
• Stand at an angle to shiny surfaces like windows or mirrors to avoid
flash reflection and bright spots in your pictures.
• Keep your fingers and other objects away from the picture-taking lens,
flash, and meter-cell window to avoid dark or light pictures.

Using Fill Flash and Off Flash
Fill Flash — Bright light indoors or outdoors from backlit subjects can create dark
shadows (especially on faces) in high-contrast scenes. Use fill flash to lighten the
shadows.
Off Flash — When you do not want to use the flash, especially indoors where flash is
prohibited, such as in theaters and museums, or in dim lighting situations, use off
flash. Use a tripod (tripod socket [17]) or place the camera on another firm support.
1. Lift the lens cover/flash (2),
2. Press the select/flash button (12) to select fill flash (26) or off flash (28).
3. Press the shutter button (1) to take a picture.

4. Press the select/flash button to return to the auto-flash/start position (24).
UNLOADING THE FILM
After you take the last picture on the film cassette, the film automatically starts to
rewind. When the film is fully rewound, the LCD panel (10) displays “0” and an empty
film cassette (c). When you remove the cassette from the camera, the LCD panel
displays “E,” (a).
Using the Rewind Button
If you don’t want to take pictures on the entire film cassette, you can automatically
rewind the film by pressing the rewind button (14). Once you’ve used this feature,
you cannot reload the same film cassette into the camera.
