Rewinding and unloading film

When the frame counter indicates that the last exposure has been made or when the fi lm -advance lever can no longer be stroked *, the roll of film has been completely exposed and should be removed. Press the rewind button on the camera baseplate, and the film is ready for rewinding into the magazine.

Press the rewind button securely on the bottom of the Auto Winder AW-l when it is used . The button will spring back after it is pressed, but this is nor- mal.

Unfold the rewind crank and turn it with a constant, gent le pressure in the direction of the arrow until yo u fee l an increased tension. Give it a few more turns until t he tension has gone and the crank turns freely. The film has now left the take-up spool and the camera may be opened.

Slide the back cover lock backward and pull the rewind knob as far as it will go. The comera back will pop open and the film magazine may be re- moved.

When the film-adva4'lce Lever is stroked, the rewind button will pop out and the film-advance mecha- nism will be re-engaged.

*Cautio n: Do not attempt to force the film advance lever- [his action will result in tearing the film out of the cartridge.
