Inserting the batteries
The exposure meter and shutter release of the LEICA R7 require a 6V power supply, either four silver oxide button cells (1.5V) or two lithium cells (3V).
Open the battery compartment cap [37] by pressing the locking button [36] and push the cap in the direction of the camera front. Use a clean cloth to wipe off any oxidization on the surface of the battery cells and insert the batteries in the battery cap; position them as marked by symbols in the battery cap. Close battery compartment cap and push it toward the camera back until it clicks shut.
Notes on battery care and use:
Store battery cells in a cool, dry place. Keep away from children. Never use old and new battery cells together. Do not mix battery cells of different makes. These battery cells are not rechargeable.
Batteries contain toxic and environmentally damaging substances. Do not discard used battery cells, but return them to your camera dealer for recycling or dispose of them at special waste collection points.
