CAUTION

The shutter system and the exposure control of your CONTAX RTS

will not function unless the battery is properly installed.

Always use a 6V silver oxide or alkaline battery (Eveready 544, Ucar

544, Mallory PX28, Alkaline Eveready 537 or equivalent).

1. Open the battery compartment cover by turning it with the edge of

a coin.

2. Install the battery with its minus (-) end facing inside, and close

the battery compartment cover.

When the battery power declines below the required voltage level,

the shutter will fail to operate. Therefore, make it a rule to check the

battery power (1 ) occasionally before shooting and (2) after

replacing the battery.

To check the battery power, press the battery checker button. If the

LED battery checker display comes on, sufficient power is indicated.

In the event if fails to come on, replace the battery.

· When the battery power drains to a low level, the LED battery

checker display may come on momentarily when the battery checker

button is depressed. In such a case, replace the battery.
