Kodak Retina IIc

Installing the Batteries
Batteries are not supplied with the unit but they
can be purchased from your Kodak dealer. Get
two size "C" batteries (photoflash are best). For .
extra-strong, long-lasting power, the Kodak B-C
Flashpack and one 22 1jz-volt battery are available
to power the unit instead of the "C" size batteries.
To install the batteries, loosen the coin-slotted
screw on the back of the flash older, and remove
the back. Next, insert the two size "C" batteries
between the upper and lower spring contacts of
the flash older with the center contact tips of the
batteries up; then replace the back.
IMPORTANT: Successful synchronizatiop re-
quires batteries that will test at least 5 amperes.
Batteries that have been stored for long periods,
especially under conditions that allow
them to
dry out, will not be satisfactory. With the B-C
Flashpack, current is drawn from a condenser
rather than directly from the battery.
