Loading the Batteries

Notes on batteries

• Soil, such as fingermarks on the poles of the batteries,

can shorten time for which the batteries can be used.

• The time for which AA-size alkaline batteries (referred

to hereafter simply as alkaline batteries) can be used

varies depending on the brand. Some brands of 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/+32°F

to +50°F). For this reason, it is better to use AA-size Ni-

MH batteries.

• Due to the nature of the battery, the battery level

warning ( , V) may appear early when the

camera is used in cold locations. Try warming the

batteries in your pocket or a similar location before use.

• Depending on the battery type and the level of charge

in the batteries, the camera may run out of power

without first displaying a battery level warning. This is

particularly likely to happen when batteries that have

run out of charge once are re-used.

• Depending on the camera mode, the transition from

to V may occur more quickly.

• Use Fujifilm Battery charger (sold separately) to charge

AA-size Ni-MH batteries.

• When first purchased or if left unused for a long period,

the amount of time which AA-size Ni-MH batteries can

be used may be short.

• Battery power consumption varies greatly depending

on use. When you change to Playback mode from

Photography mode, may not occur, however,

V may suddenly blink red and the camera may stop

operation.

• See “Notes and Cautions” (included) for more

information.
