Using The Optional Ac Power Adapter; Use At Dsc Mode - FujiFilm FinePix A403 Owner's Manual

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.
