OTHER OPERATIONS
PRINTING THE DATE/TIME
First select the date/time mode you want to print. Press the MODE button.
Each time you press it, the mode will switch in the order shown on the left.
Keep the mode you want to print displayed. Date/time is imprinted in the
lower right corner of the picture. If the date/time is superimposed on a
bright color like white, orange, yellow, etc., it may be difficult to read.
When black-and-white film is used, the date/time may not be printed.
CORRECTING THE DATE AND TIME
(Quartzdate model only)
Be sure to correct the date and time after the battery has been inserted or
replaced.
1. Keep the MODE button pressed until the "year" indicator starts blinking.
2. Press the SET button to adjust the "year" indicator. If you press the button
once, the number on the display will advance by 1. If you keep the button
pressed, the numbers will run in rapid succession. If you pass the
intended number, keep pressing to return to that number.
3. Press the MODE button once more to make the "month" indicator blink.
Press the SET button to adjust the "month" indicator. As you press the
MODE button, the blinking indicator changes in the order of "year",
"month", "day", "hour" and "minute".
4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 to set "hour" and "minute". Make sure the "minute"
indicator is blinking.
5. When "minute" has been set, press the MODE button. None of the indica-
tors will be blinking and date/time correction is now complete.
REPLACING THE REMOTE CONTROL BATTERY
(Optional RC-300C)
If the selftimer/remote control indicator doesn't blink even when you
press the button, replace the battery with a new one (CR2025).
1. Turn the screw on the bottom of the remote control counterclockwise to
loosen.
2. Turn the remote control over, and remove the cover. With the battery
facing up, remove the old battery and insert a new battery as shown.
3. Replace the cover, turn the remote control over, and turn the screw on the
bottom clockwise to tighten (see figure 9 on page 127).
