Inserting the Battery
Because the Mamiya RZ67
The camera uses one of either of the fol- lowing batteries:
4LR44 (6V alkaline manganese battery) 4SR44 (6V silver oxide battery)
1.Pull the finger catch on the Battery Chamber Cover in the direction of the arrow- head to open it.
2.Insert the battery into the chamber taking care to match the + - poles of the battery with those shown in the diagram found in the chamber: match the - pole first. Future extraction and replacement of the battery will be simplified if the Battery Removal Ribbon is placed under and over the battery. Be careful though not to block the + - poles with the ribbon.
•Even if battery power is depleted, aligning the Release Button Collar with the orange dot will make it possible to release the shutter at approximately 1/400 sec.
CAUTION:
1.Since the battery that comes with the cam- era was packed at the time of shipment, its power may be depleted sooner than that of a fresh battery. Therefore, please buy a new battery at your earliest convenience.
2.Be sure to match the poles of the battery with those shown in the diagram in the cham- ber.
3.Carefully wipe the contacts of the battery before insetting it into the chamber. Failure to do so could result in poor electrical contact and cause erratic functioning of the camera.
4.When not using the camera for a long period of time, remove the battery and store it in a dry, cool place.
5.Battery life varies considerably in accor- dance with the following factors: battery type, freshness of the battery when purchased, the conditions under which the battery was stored before purchase and how it is stored after purchase, temperature at the time of use and service frequency.
6.Silver oxide batteries have a longer battery life than alkaline batteries.
