Installation
Installation
Power Sources: This video product
should be operated only from the type
of power source indicated on the mark-
ing label. If you are not sure of the type
of power supply to your home, consult
your appliance dealer or local power
company. For video products intended
to operate from battery power, or other
sources, refer to the operating instruc-
tions.
Grounding or Polarization: This video
product is equipped with a polarized
alternating-current line plug (a plug
having one blade wider than the other).
This plug will fi t into the power outlet
only one way. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully
into the outlet, try reversing the plug.
If the plug should still fail to fi t, contact
your electrician to replace your obso-
lete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
ii
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Alternate Warnings: This video product is
equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type
plug, a plug having a third (grounding)
pin. This plug will only fi t into a ground-
ing-type power outlet. This is a safety
feature. If you are unable to insert the
plug into the outlet, contact your elec-
trician to replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
grounding-type plug.
Overloading: Do not overload wall out-
lets and extension cords as this can re-
sult in a risk of fi re or electric shock.
Ventilation: Slots and openings in the
cabinet are provided for ventilation
and to ensure reliable operation of the
video product and to protect it from
overheating, and these openings must
not be blocked or covered.
The openings should never be blocked
by placing the video product on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
This video product should not be
placed in a built-in installation such as a
bookcase or rack unless proper ventila-
tion is provided or the manufacturer’s
instructions have been adhered to.
This video product should never be
placed near or over a radiator or heat
register.
Attachments: Do not use attachments
not recommended by the video prod-
uct manufacturer as they may cause
hazards.
Water and Moisture: Do not use this video
product near water – for example, near
a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near
a swimming pool, and the like.
Power-Cord Protection: Power-Supply
cords should be routed so that they are
not likely to be walked on or pinched
by items placed upon or against them,
paying particular attention to cords at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and
the point where they exit from the ap-
pliance.
Accessories: Do not place this video
product on an unstable cart, stand, tri-
pod, bracket, or table. The video prod-
uct may fall, causing serious injury to a
child or adult, and serious damage to
the appliance. Use only with a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table recom-
mended by the manufacturer, or sold
with the video product. Any mounting
of the appliance should follow the
manufacturer’s instructions, and should
use a mounting accessory recommend-
ed by the manufacturer.
An appliance and
cart
combination
should be moved
with care. Quick
stops,
excessive
force, and uneven
surfaces may cause
the appliance and cart combination to
overturn.
Antennas
Antennas
Outdoor Antenna Grounding: If an outside
antenna or cable system is connected
to the video product, be sure the anten-
na or cable system is grounded so as to
provide some protection against volt-
age surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides
information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and support-
ing structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antennadischarge unit, size
of grounding conductors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection
to grounding electrodes, and require-
ments for the grounding electrode.
Power Lines: An outside antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric
light or power circuits, or where it can
fall into such power lines or circuits.
When installing an outside antenna
system, extreme care should be taken
to keep from touching such power lines
or circuits as contact with them might
be fatal.

• Please note this is not a free of charge service.
The Battery and Power Supply
The following describes the proper use
of the battery and how to prolong its
life. Incorrect use can shorten battery
life or cause leakage, overheating, fi re,
or explosion.
The battery is not charged at shipment.
Charge the battery before use. Keep
the battery in its case when not in use.
Notes on the Battery
The battery gradually loses its charge
when not in use. Charge the battery
one or two days before use.
Battery life can be extended by turning
the camera off when not in use.
Battery capacity decreases at low tem-
peratures; a depleted battery may not
function at when cold. Keep a fully
charged spare battery in a warm place
and exchange as necessary, or keep the
battery in your pocket or other warm
place and insert it in the camera only
when shooting. Do not place the bat-
tery in direct contact with hand warmers
or other heating devices.
Charging the Battery
Charge the battery in the supplied bat-
tery charger. Charging times will increase
at ambient temperatures below +10 °C
(+50 °F) or above +35 °C (+95 °F). Do
not attempt to charge the battery at
temperatures above 40 °C (+104 °F); at
temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the
battery will not charge.
Do not attempt to recharge a fully
charged battery. The battery does not
however need to be fully discharged
before charging.
The battery may be warm to the touch
immediately after charging or use. This
is normal.
Battery Life
At normal temperatures, the battery
can be recharged about 300 times. A
noticeable decrease in the length of
time the battery will hold a charge in-
dicates that it has reached the end of its
service life and should be replaced.
Storage
Performance may be impaired if the
battery is left unused for extended pe-
riods when fully charged. Run the bat-
tery fl at before storing it.
If the camera will not be used for an
extended period, remove the battery
and store it in a dry place with an am-
bient temperature of from +15 °C to
+25 °C (+59 °F to +77 °F). Do not store
in locations exposed to extremes of
temperature.
Cautions: Handling the Battery
• Do not transport or store with metal
objects such as necklaces or hairpins.
• Do not expose to fl ame or heat.
• Do not disassemble or modify.
• Use with designated chargers only.
• Dispose of used batteries promptly.
• Do not drop or subject to strong
physical shocks.
• Do not expose to water.
• Keep the terminals clean.
• The battery and camera body may
become warm to the touch after ex-
tended use. This is normal.
AC Adapters (Available Separately)
Use only FUJIFILM AC adapters desig-
nated for use with this camera. Other
adapters could damage the camera.
• The AC adapter is for indoor use only.
• Be sure the DC plug is securely con-
nected to the camera.
• Turn the camera off before discon-
necting the adapter. Disconnect the
adapter by the plug, not the cable.
• Do not use with other devices.
• Do not disassemble.
• Do not expose to high heat and hu-
midity.
shocks.
• Do not subject to strong physical
• The AC adapter may hum or become
hot to the touch during use. This is
normal.
• If the AC adapter causes radio interfer-
ence, reorient or relocate the receiv-
ing antenna.
Using the Camera

correctly, do not subject the camera to
impact or physical shocks while images
are being recorded.
Electrical Interference
This camera may interfere with hospital
or aviation equipment. Consult with
hospital or airline staff before using the
camera in a hospital or on an aircraft.
