7.1 Using the optional AC Power adapter
Always use a FUJIFILM AC Power Adapter AC-3V
(P.102).
Use the AC power adapter to avoid losing power
at inconvenient times, such as when you are
downloading photographed images to your
computer. Using the AC power adapter also
allows you to take pictures and play back images
without worrying about depleting the batteries.
See P.107 for notes on using the AC power adapter.
Only connect or disconnect the AC power adapter
when the camera is switched off.
Connecting or disconnecting the AC power adapter
while the camera is switched on temporarily interrupts
the power supply to the camera, so that images or
movies being shot at the time are not recorded.
Failing to switch the camera off first can also result in
damage to the xD-Picture Card or malfunctions during
PC connection.
Check that the camera is switched off. Plug the
AC power adapter connector into the “DC IN 3V”
socket and then plug the AC power adapter into
the power outlet.
The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment
and shall be easily accessible.
The shape of the plug and socket-outlet depends on
the country of use.
Connecting the AC power adapter does not
allow you to charge the Ni-MH batteries. Use the
optional charger (P.102) to charge the Ni-MH
batteries.

camera to a computer.
