Getting Ready
◆
Power Save Function
◆
If the camera is not used for 2 minutes, this function automatically switches the camera off. When this
function is active, it also switches off the LCD monitor to reduce power consumption if the camera is not
used for 30 seconds (see P.47 for details). If the camera is then left unused for a further period (for 90
seconds), the Power Save function automatically switches the camera off. To switch the camera back
on, slide the “POWER” switch to the side to turn the camera off briefly and then turn it back on.

Checking the remaining battery charge
◆
●
!
The information above is an approximate guide for photography mode. Depending on the camera mode and the type
of batteries used, the transition from “
C” to “V” may occur more quickly.
●
!
When the batteries run out, “V” is displayed and camera operation automatically stops. When this occurs, the
camera may work if you switch it on again even without loading new or fully charged batteries. However, this may
cause camera faults such as the camera switching itself off without retracting the lens. Always load new or fully
charged batteries.
●
!
Due to the nature of the battery, the battery low warning may appear early when the camera is used in cold locations.
This is normal and does not indicate a fault. Try warming the batteries in your pocket or a similar location before use.
“C” is displayed as a small icon on the right-hand
side of the LCD monitor. “
V” appears as a large
icon on the LCD monitor.
Switch the camera on and check that no battery level warning (C or V) is displayed on the LCD
monitor. If no icon is displayed, there is ample charge left in the batteries.
1 There is ample remaining battery charge.
2 The battery charge is low. Have a new set of
batteries ready.
3 The batteries run out. The display will shortly go
blank and the camera will stop working. Replace
or recharge the batteries.

Compatible batteries
h AA-size alkaline batteries (2), Rechargeable Battery NH-10 (sold separately), or AA-size Ni-MH
batteries (sold separately) (2).
●
!
Please use the same brand AA-size alkaline batteries as those supplied with the camera.

How to use the batteries
◆
hNever use the following types of batteries, as this could cause serious
problems such as batteries fluid leakage or overheating:
1. Batteries with split or peeling outer casings
2. Combinations of different types of batteries or new and used batteries together
hDo not use manganese or Ni-Cd batteries.
hSoil, such as fingermarks, on the poles of the batteries can significantly
reduce the amount of time for which the batteries can be used.
hThe time for which AA-size alkaline batteries (referred to hereafter simply as alkaline batteries) can
be used varies depending on the brand, and some alkaline batteries may stop providing power more
quickly than those supplied with the camera. Note also that due to their nature, the time for which
alkaline batteries can be used decreases in cold conditions (0°C to +10°C). The use of AA-size Ni-
MH batteries is recommended for this reason.
hCradle can be used in combination with camera and to charge rechargeable Battery NH-10 (sold
separately). Use Fujifilm Battery charger (sold separately) to charge AA-size Ni-MH batteries.
hSee P.68, 69 for other notes on using batteries.
hWhen first purchased or if left unused for a log period, the time for which AA-size Ni-MH
batteries or rechargeable Battery NH-10 can be used may be shorter. See P. 69 for details.
