Pull the lens cap cord through a strap mount.
●
!
Attach the lens cap cord to avoid losing the lens cap.
Attach the strap to the strap mounts on the camera.
Once you have attached both ends of the strap,
check carefully to make sure that the strap is firmly
secured.
●
!
Failure to attach the strap correctly can result in the camera
being dropped.
Screw the adapter ring in the direction of the arrow
to mount it on the camera.
Mounting the adapter ring on the camera not only
blocks unwanted external light but also protects the
lens and allows the optional conversion lens to be
attached.
Mount the adapter ring on the camera at all times.

Attaching the lens cap

To prevent the lens cap from appearing in the shot
when you take pictures, attach the lens cap to the
strap.
Attach the lens cap to the lens by pressing in on
each side of the cap.

LOADING THE BATTERIES

Compatible batteries

h AA-size alkaline batteries (4), or AA-size Ni-MH batteries (sold separately) (4).
●
!
Please use the same brand and grade AA-size alkaline batteries as those supplied with the camera.
◆ ◆
How to use the batteries
h Never use the following types of batteries, as this could cause serious problems
such as battery fluid leakage or overheating:
1. Batteries with split or peeling outer casings
2. Combinations of different types of batteries or new and used batteries together
h Do not use manganese or Ni-Cd batteries.
h Soil, such as fingermarks on the poles of the batteries can shorten time for which the batteries can be
used.
h The time for which AA-size alkaline batteries (referred to hereafter simply as alkaline batteries) can be used
varies depending on the brand. Some 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). The use of AA-size Ni-MH batteries is
better for this reason.
h Use Fujifilm Battery charger (sold separately) to charge AA-size Ni-MH batteries.
h See P.85, 86 for other notes on using batteries.
h 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. See P.86 more information for recovering performance of Ni-
MH batteries.
