h AA-size alkaline, Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) can be

used with this camera.

Do not use AA-size manganese, lithium or nickel-

cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries in your FinePix camera

because the heat generated by the batteries could

damage the camera or cause malfunctions.

h The operating lives of alkaline batteries vary between

brands and the life of batteries you purchase may be

shorter than the alkaline batteries provided with the

camera.

h Do not store batteries in very warm or moist

locations.

h Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small

children.

When loading the batteries into the camera, ensure that

the battery polarity (

and

) is as indicated on the

camera.

h Do not use new batteries together with used

batteries. In the case of rechargeable batteries, do

not use charged and discharged batteries together.

Do not use batteries of different types or brands

together.

h If you do not intend to use the camera for a long

period of time, remove the batteries from the camera.

(Note that if the camera is left with the batteries

removed, the time and date settings are cleared.)

h The batteries may feel warm immediately after being

used. Before removing the batteries, switch the

camera off and wait until the batteries cool down.

When replacing the batteries, always fit 2 new batteries.

Here, “new batteries” refers to either recently purchased

unused alkaline batteries, or Ni-MH (nickel metal

hydride) batteries that have recently been fully

recharged together.

In cold locations (at temperatures of +10°C/+50°F or

below), battery performance deteriorates and the time

for which they can be used shortens markedly. This is

particularly true of alkaline batteries. In cold conditions,

put the batteries in your pocket or a similar place to

warm them before loading them into the camera. If you

use a body warmer to warm the batteries, ensure that

they are not in direct contact with the warmer.

Applicable Batteries

h Do not carry or store batteries with metal objects

such as necklaces or hairpins that could come into

contact with the metal positive + and negative _

and take particular care to keep the terminals dry.

h Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify the

Notes on the Batteries

Notes on Using Your Camera Correctly

■ 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.

■ Notes on Immersion in Water or Sand

The FinePix A204 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 not to place the camera on a wet surface.

Water or sand inside the camera can cause faults that may

be irreparable.

■ 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 xD-Picture

card. In this event, remove the xD-Picture Card and wait a

short time before using it again.

■ 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 batteries and the xD-Picture Card before

storing the camera.

■ Cleaning Your Camera

h Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens, LCD

monitor screen or viewfinder as these surfaces and then

wipe lightly with a soft, dry cloth. If any soil 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, LCD

monitor screen or viewfinder 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.

■ 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.

Be sure to read this information in conjunction with “Safety Notes” (➡P.119), to ensure that you use

your camera correctly.
