Automatic rewind of fully exposed film

The film starts to rewind automatically after the last exposure at the end of the film. The frame counter in the data panel (19) counts backwards, with the frame numbers and segments run- ning backwards as confirmation of rewinding appearing alter- nately. The motor stops when the film is rewound. The 0 in the counter flashes to indicate that the completely rewound film can now be removed.

Important: If the motor stops without the 0 in the data panel flashing, the battery needs to be replaced. Do not open the back of the camera or the partially rewound film will be exposed to the light, making it unusable, the shots taken will be ruined. After in- serting the new battery, press the mid-roll rewind button (26) on the bottom of the camera to continue rewinding the film.

Rewinding a partially exposed film

The motorized film rewind can be activated manually at any time, so that a partially exposed film can be developed, for example. To do this, press the mid-roll rewind button (26) on the bottom of the camera using a ballpoint pen or similar object.
