Instructions
1. Open the film door. There is a film release button located on the top left of the camera. Insert the film into the slot. Make sure that the film's pull tab has not been removed. If it is removed, the film has been exposed to light and is no good. Do not touch the film itself. Hold it by the edges and insert it face up.
2. Close the film door and wait a few seconds for the camera to load the film and eject its cover. This will be a cardboard square with the pull tab.
3. Check the amount of pictures available. This number can be found in a small window on the back, right-hand side of the camera. This will determine whether the film was loaded correctly. It should be the same number as the pack of film loaded. For example, if the package of film you purchased contained 24 photographs, this number should be 24.
4. Open the flip-top on the camera and focus on something. Look through the view-finder on the back of the camera.
5. Push the red button on the front of the camera. Grab the picture that comes out of the same place the film cover ejected from.
