About the Icons The icons shown below are used in this document to indicate the severity of the injury or damage that can result if the information indicated by the icon is ignored and the product is used incorrectly as a result.
This icon indicates that death or serious injury can result if the information is ignored.

Unplug from power socket

WARNING
If a problem arises, turn the camera off, remove the battery, disconnect and unplug the AC power adapter. Continued use of the camera when it is emitting smoke, is emitting any unusual odor, or is in any other abnormal state can cause a fire or electric shock. Contact your FUJIFILM dealer. Do not allow water or foreign objects to enter the camera. If water or foreign objects get inside the camera, turn the camera off, remove the battery and disconnect and unplug the AC power adapter. Continued use of the camera can cause a fire or electric shock. Contact your FUJIFILM dealer. Do not use the camera in the bathroom or shower. This can cause a fire or electric shock. Never attempt to change or take apart the camera. (Never open the casing.) Do not use the camera when it has been dropped or the casing is damaged. This can cause a fire or electric shock. Contact your FUJIFILM dealer. Do not change, heat or unduly twist or pull the connection cord and do not place heavy objects on the connection cord. These actions could damage the cord and cause a fire or electric shock. If the cord is damaged, contact your FUJIFILM dealer. Do not place the camera on an unstable surface. This can cause the camera to fall or tip over and cause injury. Never attempt to take pictures while in motion. Do not use the camera while you are walking or driving a vehicle. This can result in you falling down or being involved in a traffic accident. Do not touch any metal parts of the camera during a thunderstorm. This can cause an electric shock due to induced current from the lightning discharge. Do not use the battery except as specified. Load the battery as aligned with the indicator.
Do not use in the bathroom or shower

CAUTION

C Cautions Insert the batteries in the correct orientation. Never use batteries with Battery casing peeling or damaged casing or mix old and new batteries, batteries with different charge levels, or batteries of different types. Failure to observe these precautions could result in the batteries leaking or overheating. Never use manganese or Ni-Cd. Replace AA alkaline batteries with batteries of the same make and grade as those supplied with the camera. If the battery-chamber cover can not be latched easily, confirm the battery orientation first. Do not use excessive force to latch it.

Inserting a Memory Card

Although the camera can store pictures in internal memory, SD memory cards (sold separately) can be used to store additional pictures. When no memory card is inserted, d appears in the monitor and internal memory is used for recording and playback. Note that because camera malfunction could cause internal memory to become corrupted, the pictures in internal memory should periodically be transferred to a computer and saved on the computer hard disk or on removable media such as CDs or DVDs. The pictures in internal memory can also be copied to a memory card (see page 70). To prevent internal memory from becoming full, be sure to delete pictures when they are no longer needed. When a memory card is inserted as described below, the card will be used for recording and playback. Compatible Memory Cards SanDisk SD and SDHC memory cards have been tested and approved for use in the camera. Use a card with a class 4 write speed (4 MB/s) or better when shooting HD movies. A complete list of approved memory cards is available at http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_cameras/index.html. Operation is not guaranteed with other cards. The camera can not be used with MultiMediaCard (MMC) or xD-Picture cards.
C Caution Memory cards can be locked, making it impossible to format the card or to record or delete images. Before inserting a memory card, slide the write-protect switch to the unlocked position. Write-protect switch

Inserting a Memory Card

1 Turn the camera off, and open the battery-chamber cover.
Be sure card is in correct orientation; do not insert at an angle or use force. If the memory card is not inserted correctly, d will appear in the monitor and images will be recorded to internal memory.

the 2 Insert(feel)memory card firmly until you hear a click. Holding the memory card in the orientation shown below, slide it all the way in.
Inserting a Memory Card Removing Memory Cards Be sure the camera is off before opening the battery-chamber cover. Press the card in and then release it slowly. The card can now be removed by hand. First Steps
C Cautions The memory card may spring out if you remove your finger immediately after pushing the card in. Memory cards may be warm to the touch after being removed from the camera. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
Inserting a Memory Card C Cautions Format memory cards before first use, and be sure to reformat all memory cards after using them in a computer or other device. For more information on formatting memory cards, see page 76. Memory cards are small and can be swallowed; keep out of reach of children. If a child swallows a memory card, seek medical assistance immediately. Do not turn the camera off or remove the memory card while the memory card is being formatted or data are being recorded to or deleted from the card. Failure to observe this precaution could damage the card. miniSD or microSD adapters that are larger or smaller than the standard dimensions of an SD card may not eject normally; if the card does not eject, take the camera to an authorized service representative. Do not forcibly remove the card. Do not affix labels to memory cards. Peeling labels can cause camera malfunction. Movie recording may be interrupted with some types of memory card. The data in internal memory may be erased or corrupted when the camera is repaired. Please note that the repairer will be able to view pictures in internal memory. Formatting a memory card or internal memory in the camera creates a folder in which pictures are stored. Do not rename or delete this folder or use a computer or other device to edit, delete, or rename image files. Always use the camera to delete pictures from memory cards and internal memory; before editing or renaming files, copy them to a computer and edit or rename the copies, not the originals.
