correctly.
■ Places to Avoid
Do not store or use the camera in the following types
of locations:
h In the rain or in very humid, dirty or dusty places
h In direct sunlight or in places subject to extreme
temperature rises, such as in a closed car in
summer
h Extremely cold places
h Places with strong vibration
h Places with smoke or steam

or close to water, make sure that the camera is not
damaged by water or sand. Take care not to place the
camera on a wet surface.
■ Damaged by Condensation
If the camera is carried from a cold location into a
warm place, water droplets (condensation) may form
on the inside of the camera or on the lens. When this
occurs, turn the camera off and wait an hour before
using the camera. Condensation may also form on the
xD-Picture card. In this event, remove the xD-Picture
card and wait a short time.
■ When the Camera is Not Used or is stored
Periods of Time
If you do not intend to use the camera for a long
period of time, remove the battery and the xD-Picture
card.
■ Cleaning Your Camera
h
Use a blower brush to remove any dust on the lens or
LCD monitor, and then gently wipe the camera with a
soft, dry cloth. If any soil remains, apply a small amount
of lens cleaning liquid to a piece of FUJIFILM lens
cleaning paper and wipe gently.
h
Do not scratch hard objects against the lens or LCD
monitor.
h
Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not use volatile substances or cleaning products
these items can cause damage.
■ Using the Camera When Traveling
When traveling overseas, do not place your camera in
the check-in baggage. Baggage can be subjected to
violent shocks, and the camera may be damaged
inside or outside.
Notes on the Power Supply
This camera uses the Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery
NP-120. Note the points below when using the
rechargeable battery. Take particular care to read the
Safety Notes to make sure that you use the battery
correctly.
✽ When shipped, the NP-120
is not fully charged. Always
charge the NP-120 before
using it.
h When carrying the NP-120,
install it in a digital camera
or keep it in the soft case.
h When storing the NP-120, place it inside the special
soft case provided.
■ Battery Features
h The NP-120 gradually loses its charge even when not
used. Use a NP-120 that has been charged recently
(in the last day or two) to take pictures.
h To maximize the life of the NP-120, turn the camera
off as quickly as possible when it is not being used.
h The number of available frames will be lower in cold
locations or at low temperatures. Take along a spare
fully charged NP-120.
You can also increase the amount of power produced
by putting the NP-120 in your pocket or another warm
place to heat it and then loading it into the camera
just before you take a picture.
If you are using a heating pad, take care not to place
the NP-120 directly against the pad. The camera may
not operate if you use a depleted NP-120 in cold
conditions.
■ Charging the Battery
h You can charge the battery using the camera and the
AC power adapter (included).
i The NP-120 can be charged at ambient
temperatures between 0°C and +40°C (+32°F and
+104°F). At an ambient temperature of +23°C
(+73°F), it takes approximately 4 hours to charge a
fully depleted NP-120 battery.
i You should charge the NP-120 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-120 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because
the performance of the NP-120 is impaired.
i You cannot charge the NP-120 at temperatures of
0°C (+32°F) or below.
h You can also use the optional Battery Charger BC-65
to charge the NP-120. When charging, use the NP-
120 battery adapter supplied with the BC-65 (Refer to
the Owner’s Manual for details).
i The NP-120 can be charged using the BC-65
Battery Charger at ambient temperatures between
0°C and +40°C (+32°F and +104°F). At an ambient
temperature of +23°C (+73°F), it takes
approximately 225 minutes to charge a fully
depleted NP-120 battery.
i You should charge the NP-120 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-120 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because
the performance of the NP-120 is impaired.
