On pressing the MEASURE button one of the three LED´s will light. The variable resistor

green LED lights when the MEASURE button is pressed again.
If the red LED lights, the resistor is turned anticlockwise and if the yellow LED lights, it is
turned clockwise. At least two seconds must be allowed between measurements.
Control
To ensure the ISO dial functions, the measurement should also be made for two other
ISO settings (50 and 800). * (100 and 1600).
In each case the green LED should light when the MEASURE button is pressed.
