After the last exposure, and before the back is opened,
it is necessary to rewind the film into the magazine.

knob toward you and the lens up. Pull the rewind

Push the REWIND RELEASE in the direction of the
arrow and hold the release while turning the rewind
knob clockwise, in the direction of the arrow, until
the film is completely rewound into the maga-
zine. The film is completely rewound when
you feel a lessening of tension on the rewind
knob.

Open the camera back; this automatical1y
returns the exposure counter to E (empty).
Raise the rewind knob fully and remove the
film magazine.
