Batteries that Can Be Charged

AA-size Ni-MH batteries

Fujifilm HR-3UF: 2 (supplied with the camera or sold separately)

The shapes of the Battry charger, the plug and socket outlet depend on the country.

Plug the charger into a power outlet to begin charging. Charging ends after about 5 hours and the charging lamp goes off. Unplug the battery charger from the power outlet when it is not in use.

! Ni-MH batteries are not fully charged at shipment and must be charged before being used. Newly purchased batteries or batteries that have been left unused for an extended period may not be fully charged. (This is indicated by the immediate display of the battery low warning and a low available shots/time for battery operation.) This is a normal 1 characteristic of the batteries and does not indicate a fault. Repeatedly charging and using the batteries 3

or 4 times will enable you to fully recharge the batteries and increase the time for which the camera will operate using batteries.

! If you repeatedly charge a Ni-MH battery before it is fully discharged, it will suffer from the “memory effect” , causing the battery low warning to appear while there is still ample charge remaining in the battery. You can restore batteries to normal operation by running the batteries completely flat before charging them.

! Attempting to charge batteries other than those specified for use with the charger (such as manganese, alkaline or lithium batteries) can cause the batteries to burst or leak. This could result in a fire or injury and consequent damage to the surroundings.

See P.107 for information on the number of

12available shots/time using the batteries.

! If the terminals of Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) batteries are soiled, it may not be possible to charge them. To avoid possible problems, clean the battery terminals and charger terminals with a clean, dry cloth. (Clean the batteries and charger terminals with a clean, dry cloth the first time the batteries are charged. Then insert and remove the batteries from the charger several times prior to charging.)

! Do not charge new and used batteries together.

! Fully discharged Ni-MH batteries take approximately 5 hours (1700 mAh) to recharge. Shorter charging times can be achieved using the Ni-MH/Battery Charger BCH-NH (P.91).

Memory effect: A phenomenon whereby a battery displays the characteristic of appearing to have a reduced

capacity.

! See P.94-96 for notes on the batteries.
