Power Supply / Inserting And Changing The Batteries - Leica R9 Bedienungsanleitung

Power supply / Inserting and
changing the batteries
The LEICA R9 takes 2 type "CR2" (Ø 15.6 mm x
27 mm) lithium cells, which are housed in a
removable battery compartment (1.2), which
simultaneously serves as a handgrip. To remove
the battery compartment, slide the release latch
(1.37) on the bottom in the direction of the
arrow. The battery compartment can then be slid
off downwards.
Important:
The exposure mode dial (1.11) should first of all
be set to OFF.
To attach the battery compartment, push it on
from below. It must lock into place. The Motor-
Winder R8/R9 and Motor-Drive R8/R9 are both
equipped with their own battery compartment and
are attached to the camera with these compart-
ments in place. The camera's battery compart-
ment must therefore be detached first.
Note:
The capacity of batteries differs greatly from one
manufacturer to another. For this reason, it is not
possible to provide any information about the
number of exposures that can be made with
each set of batteries.
