INSTALLING THE BACK
The Multi-Function Back can be used only
on the Minolta X-700.
Install the back as
follows:
1. Open the camera's regular back and push
down on its release pin to remove it (A).
2. Insert
the
Multi-Function
Back's
lower
hinge pin into the camera's lower eyelet.
Then push down on the release pin, align
the upper hinge pin with the upper eyelet,
and release the pin (B).
3. Before loading film, close the back and
check whether the electrical contacts mate
properly. To do so, turn the camera's main
switch on and set the Multi-Function Back's
data-imprint switch at "AUTO"; then press
the
camera's
operating
button
to
see
whether the imprint indicator lights up.
NOTE
• If the Multi-Function Back does not open or
close smoothly when you first use it or after
some use, or if it does not connect properly
electrically with the camera, return it to the
nearest authorized Minolta service facility. Do
not attempt to repair it yourself by bending the
camera-contact pins or otherwise.
