Power Supply and Batteries
Applicable Batteries
• In the camera, use AA-size alkaline or Ni-MH (nickel-
metal hydride) rechargeable batteries.
Do not use AA-size manganese, nickel-cadmium (Ni-
Cd) or lithium batteries in your FinePix S5700 / FinePix
S700 / FinePix S5800 / FinePix S800 because the heat
created by the batteries could damage the camera or
cause it not to work.
• The life of alkaline batteries varies between brands. The
life of batteries you purchase may be shorter than those
provided with the camera.
Notes on the Batteries
Incorrect use of the batteries could cause them to leak,
become hot, ignite, or burst. Always observe the
precautions given below.
• Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire.
• Do not carry or store batteries with metal objects such
as necklaces or hairpins.
• Do not expose the batteries to water, and keep batteries
from getting wet or stored in moist locations.
• Do not attempt to take apart or change the batteries,
including battery casings.
• Do not subject the batteries to strong impacts.
• Do not use batteries that are leaking, deformed,
discolored.
• Do not store batteries in warm or humid places.
• Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small
children.
• Make sure that the battery polarity (+ and ,) is
correct.
• Do not use new with used batteries. Do not use charged
and discharged batteries together.
• Do not use different types or brands of batteries at the
same time.
• If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period
of time, remove the batteries from the camera. Note if
the camera is left with the batteries removed, the time
and date settings are cleared.
• The batteries feel warm right after being used. Before
removing the batteries, turn the camera off and wait for
the batteries to cool down.
• Since batteries do not work well in cold weather or
locations, warm the batteries by placing them inside
your garments before use. Batteries do not work well
when cold. They will work again when the temperature
returns to normal.
• Soil (such as fingerprints) on the battery terminals
makes the batteries charge less reducing the number of
images. Carefully wipe the battery terminals with a soft
dry cloth before loading.
If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the
battery compartment thoroughly and then load new
batteries.
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.
