Disposing of Batteries

When disposing of batteries, do so in accordance with your local waste disposal regulations.

Using the AA-size Ni-MH Batteries and the Rechargeable Battery NH-10 Correctly

h As a power source in digital cameras, AA-size Ni- MH batteries and the Rechargeable Battery NH-10 (referred to hereafter as Ni-MH batteries) are superior to alkaline batteries in several ways, such as allowing more shots to be taken with the camera. However, care must be taken with the way Ni-MH batteries are used if their original performance is to be maintained.

h Ni-MH batteries left unused in storage for long periods can become “deactivated”. Also, repeatedly charging Ni-MH batteries that are only partially discharged can cause them to suffer from the “memory effect”.

Ni-MH batteries that are “deactivated” or affected by “memory” suffer from the problem of only providing power for a short time after being charged. To prevent this problem, discharge and recharge them several times using the camera’s “Discharging rechargeable batteries” function. By repeating this cycle several times, the temporary reduction in performance caused by “memory” or “deactivation” can be remedied and the batteries can be restored to their original performance levels.

Deactivation and memory are specific to Ni-MH batteries and are not in fact battery faults. See P.76 for the procedure for “Discharging rechargeable batteries”.

Do not use the “Discharging rechargeable batteries” function when alkaline batteries are being used.

h To charge Ni-MH batteries, use the quick battery charger (sold separately). Refer to the instructions supplied with the charger to ensure that the charger is used correctly.

h Do not use the battery charger to charge other batteries.

h Note that the batteries feel warm after being charged.

h Due to the way the camera is constructed, a small amount of current is used even when the camera is turned off. Note in particular that leaving AA-size Ni- MH batteries and the Rechargeable Battery NH-10 in the camera for a long period will overdischarge the batteries and may render them unusable even after recharging.

h Ni-MH batteries and the Rechargeable Battery NH- 10 will self-discharge even when not used, and the time for which they can be used may be shortened as a result.

h The rechargeable battery NH-10 can be charged by setting the camera in the PictureCradle CP-FXA10 (sold separately).

h Ni-MH batteries cannot be charged using a combination of the camera and the cradle.

h Ni-MH batteries will deteriorate rapidly if overdischarged (eg. by discharging the batteries in a flashlight). Use the “Discharging rechargeable batteries” function provided in the camera to discharge the batteries.

h Ni-MH batteries have a limited service life. If a battery can only be used for a short time even after

repeated discharge-charge cycles, it may have reached the end of its service life.

AC Power Adapter

Always use only the AC-3V AC Power Adapter (sold separately) or the AC-3VW AC Power Adapter (supplied with PictureCradle sold separately). The use of other AC power adapters may result in damage to your camera.

h The AC-3V cannot be used to charge the NH-10 Rechargeable Battery.

h Use AC power adapter for indoor use only.

h Plug the connection cord plug securely into the DC input terminal of the FUJIFILM Digital camera.

h Turn off the FUJIFILM Digital camera before disconnecting the cord from the FUJIFILM Digital camera’s DC input terminal. To disconnect, pull out the plug gently (Do not pull on the cord).

h Do not use this AC power adapter with any device other than your camera.

h During use, the AC power adapter will become hot to the touch. This is normal.

h Do not take apart the AC power adapter. Doing so could be dangerous.

h Do not use this device in a place with hot humid place.

h Do not subject AC power adapter to strong shocks. h This device may emit a humming. But this is normal. h If used near a radio, this device may cause static, if this happens move the camera away from the radio.
