For Your Safety
The Battery and Power Supply
Note: Check the type of battery used in your camera and
read the appropriate sections.
The following describes the proper use of batteries and how
to prolong their life. Incorrect use can shorten battery life or
cause leakage, overheating, fi re, or explosion.
Li-ion Batteries Li-ion Batteries
Read this section if your camera uses a rechargeable
Li-ion battery.
The battery is not charged at shipment. Charge the battery
before use. Keep the battery in its case when not in use.
■ Notes on the Battery
The battery gradually loses its charge when not in use.
Charge the battery one or two days before use.
Battery life can be extended by turning the camera off when
not in use.
Battery capacity decreases at low temperatures; a depleted
battery may not function when cold. Keep a fully charged
spare battery in a warm place and exchange as necessary,
or keep the battery in your pocket or other warm place and
insert it in the camera only when shooting. Do not place
the battery in direct contact with hand warmers or other
heating devices.
■ Charging the Battery
Charge the battery in the supplied battery charger. Charging
times will increase at ambient temperatures below +10 °C
(+50 °F) or above +35 °C (+95 °F). Do not attempt to charge
the battery at temperatures above 40 °C (+104 °F); at tem-
peratures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the battery will not charge.
Do not attempt to recharge a fully charged battery. The bat-
tery does not however need to be fully discharged before
charging.
The battery may be warm to the touch immediately after
charging or use. This is normal.
■ Battery Life
At normal temperatures, the battery can be recharged about
300 times. A noticeable decrease in the length of time the
battery will hold a charge indicates that it has reached the
end of its service life and should be replaced.
■ Storage
Performance may be impaired if the battery is left unused
for extended periods when fully charged. Run the battery
fl at before storing it.
If the camera will not be used for an extended period, re-
move the battery and store it in a dry place with an ambient
temperature of from +15 °C to +25 °C (+59 °F to +77 °F). Do
not store in locations exposed to extremes of temperature.
■ Cautions: Handling the Battery
• Do not transport or store with metal objects such as neck-
laces or hairpins.
• Do not expose to fl ame or heat.
• Do not disassemble or modify.
• Use with designated chargers only.
• Dispose of used batteries promptly.
• Do not drop or subject to strong physical shocks.
• Do not expose to water.
• Keep the terminals clean.
• The battery and camera body may become warm to the
touch after extended use. This is normal.
■ Disposal
Dispose of used batteries in accord with local regulations.
AC Power Adapters (Available Separately) AC Power Adapters (Available Separately)
Use only FUJIFILM AC power adapters designated for use
with this camera. Other adapters could damage the camera.
• The AC power adapter is for indoor use only.
• Be sure the DC plug is securely connected to the camera.
• Turn the camera off before disconnecting the adapter.
Disconnect the adapter by the plug, not the cable.
• Do not use with other devices.
• Do not disassemble.
• Do not expose to high heat and humidity.
• Do not subject to strong physical shocks.
• The adapter may hum or become hot to the touch during
use. This is normal.
• If the adapter causes radio interference, reorient or relocate
the receiving antenna.
Using the Camera
• Do not aim the camera at extremely bright light sources,
such as the sun in a cloudless sky. Failure to observe this
precaution could damage the camera image sensor.
• Strong sunlight focused through the viewfi nder may dam-
age the panel of electronic viewfi nder (EVF). Do not aim
the electronic viewfi nder at the sun.

at weddings or before taking the camera on a trip), take a
test shot and view the results to ensure that the camera is
functioning normally. FUJIFILM Corporation can not accept
liability for damages or lost profi ts incurred as a result of
