Notes on the Power Supply

hApplicable Batteries

h LR6 AA-size alkaline batteries can be used with this

camera.

h The operating lives of alkaline batteries vary between

brands and the life of batteries you purchase may be

shorter than the alkaline batteries provided with the

camera.

hNotes on the Batteries

Incorrect use of the batteries could cause them to leak,

become hot, ignite or burst. Always observe the precautions

given below.

h When loading the batteries into the camera, ensure that

the battery polarity (= and -) is as indicated on the

camera.

h Ensure that the camera is switched off when loading and

removing the batteries.

h Do not heat the batteries or throw into a fire.

h Do not carry or store batteries with metal objects such as

necklaces or hairpins that could come into contact with

the metal = and - poles of the batteries.

h Do not expose the batteries to fresh or sea water, and

take particular care to keep the terminals dry.

h Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify the

batteries.

h Do not attempt to peel off or cut the batteries casing.

insecticide, as these may react with camera body and

cause deformation or remove the coating.

hUsing the Camera Overseas

h When traveling overseas, do not place your camera in the

check-in baggage. Baggage handling at airports may

subject baggage to violent shocks, and the camera may

be damaged internally even when no external damage is

use batteries of different types or brands together.

h When replacing the batteries, always fit 2 new batteries.

Here, ‘new batteries’ refers to either recently purchased

unused alkaline batteries.

h In cold locations (at temperatures of +10°C or below),

battery performance deteriorates and the time for which

they can be used shortens markedly. This is particularly

true of alkaline batteries. In cold conditions, put the

batteries in your pocket or a similar place to warm them

before loading them into the camera. If you use a body

warmer to warm the batteries, ensure that they are not in

direct contact with the warmer.

h If the battery terminals are soiled by fingerprints, etc., the

number of available shots declines markedly. Carefully

wipe the battery terminals with a soft dry cloth before

loading them into the camera.

h If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the

battery compartment thoroughly and then load new

batteries.

h If any battery fluid comes into contact with your hands or

clothing, flush the area thoroughly with water. Note that

battery fluid can cause loss of eyesight if it gets into your

eyes. If this occurs, do not rub your eyes. Flush the fluid

out with clean water and contact your physician for

treatment.

WARNING

Notes on the SmartMedia

hSmartMedia

The SmartMedia card supplied with your camera is a new

image recording medium developed especially for use in

digital cameras. Each SmartMedia card contains a built-in

semiconductor memory chip (NAND flash memory) which is

used for storing digital image data. Because the data is

stored electronically, the stored image data can be deleted

from the card and new data recorded.

hSmartMedia with IDs

The SmartMedia ID is a SmartMedia that has an individually

assigned identification number. SmartMedia ID cards can

be used with devices that use ID numbers for copyright

protection or other purposes. This camera accepts

SmartMedia ID cards in the same way as conventional

SmartMedia cards.

hStoring Data

In the situations listed below, recorded data may be deleted

(destroyed). Please note that Fuji Photo Film (U.K.) Ltd.,

accepts no responsibility whatever for the loss (destruction)

of recorded data.

h When the SmartMedia is used incorrectly by the owner or

a third party.

h When the SmartMedia is exposed to static electricity or

electrical noise.

h When the SmartMedia slot cover is opened or the

SmartMedia removed and the camera is then switched off

during data recording, during data deleting (SmartMedia

formatting).

hNotes on Handling SmartMedia

h Take care to hold the SmartMedia straight when you load

it into your camera.

become impossible to store or delete data on a

SmartMedia that has been used for a long period. When

the card is inserted or removed.

h When you attach the label, take care that it does not

cover any of the write-protect area.

hNotes on Using SmartMedia with a PC

h If you intend to take photos using a SmartMedia that

has been used on a PC, format the SmartMedia by

connecting the camera to a TV using the video cable.

h Do not change or delete the directory (folder) names

or file names on the SmartMedia from your PC as this

will make it impossible to use the SmartMedia in your

camera.

h To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC’s

hard disk and then edit the copied data.
