Soil (such as fingerprints) on the battery terminals can

markedly reduce the number of available shots. Carefully

wipe the battery terminals clean with a soft dry cloth before

loading the batteries.

If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the battery

compartment thoroughly and then load new batteries.

f any battery fluid comes into contact with your hands or

clothing, flush the area thoroughly with water. Note that

battery fluid can cause loss of eyesight if it gets into your

eyes. If this occurs, do not rub your eyes. Flush the fluid out

with clean water and contact your physician for treatment.

■ Disposing of Batteries

When disposing of batteries, do so in accordance with your

local waste disposal regulations.

■ Notes on Small Rechargeable Batteries (Ni-MH

batteries)

h Always use the special battery charger to charge AA-size

Ni-MH batteries. Charge the batteries as described in the

instructions provided with the battery charger.

h Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries other

than those specified for use with the charger.

h Note that the batteries may feel warm immediately after

being charged.

h Ni-MH batteries are not charged at shipment. Be sure to

charge the batteries before using them.

h The camera mechanism is such that it draws a minute

amount of current even when the camera is switched off.

Take particular care not to leave Ni-MH batteries in the

camera for a long period of time as they can become

excessively discharged and may no longer be usable

even when charged.

h Ni-MH batteries self-discharge even when not used.

Always charge Ni-MH batteries before using them. If the

time for which a battery provides power shortens

markedly when it has been correctly charged, this

indicates that the battery has reached the end of its

effective life and should be replaced.

h Soiling (fingerprints, etc.) on the terminals of Ni-MH

batteries can greatly reduce the number of available

shots. When this occurs, clean the terminals carefully

with a soft dry cloth. Then use up the remaining charge in

the batteries and recharge them.

h Newly purchased batteries or batteries that have been

left unused for an extended period may not be fully

charged. (This is indicated by the immediate display of

the battery low warning or a low number of available

shots.) This is a normal characteristic of the batteries and

does not indicate a fault. Repeatedly charging and using

the batteries 3 or 4 times will restore them to a normal

condition.

h If you repeatedly charge a Ni-MH battery before it is fully

discharged, it will suffer from the “memory effect”*,

causing the battery low warning to appear while there is

still ample charge remaining in the battery. To restore the

batteries to their normal condition, use up all the charge

in the batteries before recharging them.

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

used with this camera.

Do not use AA-size manganese or nickel-cadmium(Ni-

Cd) batteries in your FinePix S3000 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 use the batteries that are leaking, deformed,

discolored or exhibit any other obvious abnormality.

h Do not store the batteries in very warm or moist locations.

h Keep the batteries out of reach of infant and young

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 4 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

Notes on the Power Supply

Incorrect use of the batteries could cause them to leak,

become hot, ignite or burst. Always observe the

precautions given below.

h Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire.

h Do not carry or store the batteries with metal objects

such as necklaces or hairpins that could come into

contact with the metal positive > and negative < poles

of the battery.

h Do not expose the batteries to fresh or sea water, and

take particular care to keep the terminals dry.

h Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify the

batteries.

h Do not attempt to peel off or cut the battery casing.

h Do not drop, strike or otherwise subject the batteries to

strong impacts.
