The slide-lever on the rear-skirt of the top-plate fulfills the same function as a conventional baseplate button which releases the sprocket for reverse rotation. And at the same time it activates the motorised film rewind. The aforementioned slider/lever in no way blocks the opening of the camera back door. Press the button as central on the back door slider (on the end of the camera) and slide the back door release bar downwards. The door opens.
