Notes on Using Your Camera Correctly

Be sure to read this information in conjunction with "Safety Notes" (➡P.86), to ensure that you
e
use your camera correctly.
I Places to Avoid
Do not store or use the camera in the following types of
locations:
h In the rain or in very humid, dirty or dusty places.
h In direct sunlight or in places subject to extreme
temperature rises, such as in a closed car in summer.
h Extremely cold places.
h Places subject to strong vibration.
h Places affected by smoke or steam.
h Places subject to strong magnetic fields (such as
near motors, transformers or magnets).
h In contact with chemicals such as pesticides or next
to rubber or vinyl products for long periods of time.
I Notes on Immersion in Water or Sand
The FinePix M603 is particularly adversely affected by
water and sand. When you are at the beach or close to
water, ensure that the camera is not exposed to water
or sand. Take care also not to place the camera on a
wet surface. Water or sand inside the camera can
cause faults that may be irreparable.
I Notes on Condensation
If the camera is carried suddenly from a cold location
into a warm place, water droplets (condensation) may
form on the inside of the camera or on the lens. When
this occurs, switch the camera off and wait an hour
before using the camera. Condensation may also form
on the media. In this event, remove the media and wait
a short time before using it again.

Notes on the Power Supply

Notes on Using the Battery (NP-60)

This camera uses the Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery
Pack NP-60. Note the points below when using the
rechargeable battery. Take particular care to read the
Safety Notes to ensure that you use the battery correctly.
✽ When shipped, the NP-60 is not fully charged.
Always charge the NP-60 before using it.
h
When carrying the NP-60, install it in a digital camera
or keep it in the soft case.
h
When storing the NP-60,
place it inside the special
Battery
soft case provided.
(NP-60)
I Battery Features
Soft case
The NP-60 gradually loses its charge even when not
h
used. Use a NP-60 that has been charged recently
(in the last day or two) to take pictures.
h
To maximize the life of the NP-60, switch the camera
off as quickly as possible when it is not being used.
h
The number of available shots will be lower in cold
locations or at low temperatures. Take along a spare
fully charged NP-60.
You can also increase the amount of power
produced by putting the NP-60 in your pocket or
another warm place to heat it and then loading it into
the camera just before you take a picture.
If you are using a heating pad, take care not to place the
NP-60 directly against the pad. The camera may not
operate if you use a depleted NP-60 in cold conditions.
I Charging the Battery
You can charge the NP-60 using the AC Power
h
Adapter AC-5VS/AC-5VHS.
I When the Camera is Unused for Long
Periods
If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period
of time, remove the battery and the media before
storing the camera.
I Cleaning Your Camera
h Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens and
LCD monitor screen as these surfaces, and then
wipe lightly with a soft, dry cloth. If any soiling
remains, apply a small amount of lens cleaning liquid
to a piece of FUJIFILM lens cleaning paper and wipe
gently.
h Do not scratch hard objects against the lens and LCD
monitor screen as these surfaces are easily
damaged.
h Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not use volatile substances such as thinners,
benzine or insecticide, as these may react with
camera body and cause deformation or remove the
coating.
I Using the Camera Overseas
When travelling overseas, do not place your camera in
the check-in baggage. Baggage handling at airports
may subject baggage to violent shocks, and the
camera may be damaged internally even when no
external damage is visible.
• The NP-60 can be charged at ambient
temperatures between 0°C and +40°C (+32°F and
+104°F). At an ambient temperature of +23°C
(+73°F), it takes approximately 3 hours to charge a
fully depleted NP-60 battery.
• You should charge the NP-60 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-60 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because
the performance of the NP-60 is impaired.
• You cannot charge the NP-60 at temperatures of
0°C (+32°F) or below.
h
You can also use the optional BC-65 Battery Charger
to charge the NP-60.
• The NP-60 can be charged using the BC-65 Battery
Charger at ambient temperatures between 0°C and
+40°C (+32°F and +104°F). At an ambient
temperature of +23°C (+73°F), it takes
approximately 2 hours to charge a fully depleted
NP-60 battery.
• You should charge the NP-60 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-60 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because
the performance of the NP-60 is impaired.
h
The NP-60 does not need to be fully discharged or
exhausted flat before being charged.
h
The NP-60 may feel warm after it has been charged or
immediately after being used. This is perfectly normal.
h
Do not recharge a fully charged NP-60.
