Li-ion Batteries

AA Alkaline/Rechargeable Ni-MH Batteries/ AA lithium batteries

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

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 at 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 temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the battery will not charge.

Do not attempt to recharge a fully charged battery. The battery 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, remove 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 necklaces or hairpins.

• Do not expose to ﬂ ame or heat.

• Do not disassemble or modify.

• Use with designated chargers only.

• 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.

AA Alkaline/Rechargeable Ni-MH Batteries/ AA lithium batteries

Read this section if your camera uses AA alkaline or rechargeable AA Ni-MH batteries. Information on compatible battery

types may be found elsewhere in the camera manual.

■ Cautions: Handling the Batteries

• Do not expose to water, ﬂ ame, or heat, or store in warm or humid conditions.

• Do not transport or store with metal objects such as necklaces or hairpins.

• Do not disassemble or modify the batteries or battery casing.

• Do not subject to strong physical shocks.

• Do not use batteries that are leaking, deformed, or discolored.

• Keep out of reach of infants and small children.

• Insert in the correct orientation.

• Do not mix old and new batteries, batteries

AC Power Adapters (Available Separately)

with diﬀ erent charge levels, or batteries of diﬀ erent types.

• If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries. Note that the camera clock will be reset.

• The batteries may be warm to the touch immediately after use. Turn the camera oﬀ and allow the batteries to cool before handling.

• Battery capacity tends to decrease at low temperatures. Keep spare batteries in a pocket or other warm place and exchange as necessary. Cold batteries may recover some of their charge when warmed.

• Fingerprints and other stains on the battery terminals can impair battery performance. Thoroughly clean the terminals with a soft, dry cloth before inserting them in the camera.

If the batteries leak, clean the battery compartment thoroughly before inserting new batteries.

If ﬂ uid from the battery comes into contact with skin or clothing, ﬂ ush the aﬀ ected area with water. If  uid

enters your eyes, immediately  ush the a ected area with water and seek medical attention. Do not rub your eyes. Failure to observe this precaution could result in permanent visual impairment.

■ Ni-MH Batteries

The capacity of Ni-MH batteries may be temporarily reduced when new, after long periods of disuse, or if they are repeatedly recharged before being fully discharged. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction. Capacity can be increased by repeatedly discharging the batteries using the discharge option in the camera setup menu and recharging them using a battery charger.

Q C AUTION: Do not use the discharge option

with alkaline batteries.

The camera draws a small amount of current even when oﬀ . Ni-MH batteries that have been left in the camera for an extended period may be drawn down to the point that they no longer hold a charge. Battery performance may also drop if the batteries are run down in a device such as a ﬂ ashlight. Use the discharge option in the camera setup menu to discharge Ni-MH batteries. Batteries that no longer hold a charge even after repeatedly being discharged and recharged have reached the end of their service life and must be replaced.

Ni-MH batteries can be recharged in a battery charger (sold separately). Batteries may become warm to the touch after charging. Refer to the instructions provided with the charger for more information. Use the charger with compatible batteries only.

Ni-MH batteries gradually lose their charge when not in use.

■ Disposal

Dispose of used batteries in accord with local regulations.

For Your Safety

AC Power Adapters (Available Separately)

This section applies to all camera models. Use only FUJIFILM AC power adapters designated for use with this camera. Other adapters could damage the camera.

an greater or lesser angle than selected or be unable to stitch the frames together perfectly. The last part of the panorama may not be recorded if shooting ends before the panorama is complete.

Q Shooting may be interrupted if the camera is panned too quickly or too slowly. Pan-

ning the camera in a direction other than that shown cancels shooting.

Q The desired results may not be achieved with moving subjects, subjects close to

the camera, unvarying subjects such as the sky or a  eld of grass, subjects that are in constant motion, such as waves and waterfalls, or subjects that undergo marked changes in brightness. Panoramas may be blurred if the subject is poorly lit.

Choose z for seamless 360° panoramas that can be played back in a loop (P 58).

R The t SAVE DATA SET-UP> SAVE ORG IMAGE option can be used to record a

v panorama in addition to a seamless z panorama (P 106).

Q Depending on the subject and shooting conditions, the camera may produce

distorted results or a v panorama. The top and bottom of the area visible in the shooting display are cropped out and white strips may appear at the top and bottom of the display.

For Best Results

For best results, move the camera in a small circle at a steady speed, keeping the camera horizontal and being careful only to pan in the direction shown by the guides. If the desired results are not achieved, try panning at a di erent speed.
