Always use the AC Power Adapter AC-5VX/AC-5VH/

AC-5VHS with the camera.

The use of an AC Power adapter other than AC-5VX/

AC-5VH/AC-5VHS can be damaged to your digital

camera.

h Use the AC power adapter for indoor use only.

h Plug the connection cord plug securely into the DC

input terminal of the FUJIFILM Digital camera.

h Turn off the FUJIFILM Digital camera before

disconnecting the cord from the FUJIFILM Digital

camera’s DC input terminal. To disconnect, pull out

the plug gently. Do not pull on the cord.

h Do not use the AC power adapter with any device

other than your camera.

h During use, the AC power adapter will become hot

to the touch. This is normal.

h Do not take apart the AC power adapter. Doing so

could be dangerous.

h Do not use the AC power adapter in a hot and

humid place.

h Do not subject the AC power adapter to strong

shocks.

h The AC power adapter may emit a humming. This is

normal.

h If used near a radio, the AC power adapter may

cause static. If this happens, move the camera away

from the radio.

AC Power Adapter

Using the AA-size Ni-MH batteries

correctly

h As a power source in digital cameras, AA-size Ni-

MH batteries (referred to hereafter as Ni-MH

batteries) are superior to alkaline batteries in several

ways, such as allowing more shots to be taken with

the camera. However, care must be taken with the

way Ni-MH batteries are used if their original

performance is to be maintained.

h Ni-MH batteries left unused in storage for long

periods can become “deactivated”. Also, repeatedly

charging Ni-MH batteries that are only partially

discharged can cause them to suffer from the

“memory effect”.

Ni-MH batteries that are “deactivated” or affected by

“memory” suffer from the problem of only providing

power for a short time after being charged. To

prevent this problem, discharge and recharge them

several times using the camera’s “Discharging

rechargeable batteries” function. By repeating this

cycle several times, the temporary reduction in

performance caused by “memory” or “deactivation”

can be remedied and the batteries can be restored

to their original performance levels.

Deactivation and memory are specific to Ni-MH

batteries and are not in fact battery faults. See P.120

for the procedure for “Discharging rechargeable

batteries”.

Do not use the “Discharging rechargeable batteries”

function when alkaline batteries being used.

h To charge Ni-MH batteries, use the quick battery

charger (sold separately). Refer to the instructions

supplied with the charger to make sure that the

charger is used correctly.

h Do not use the battery charger to charge other

batteries.

h Note that the batteries feel warm after being

charged.

h Due to the way the camera is constructed, a small

amount of current is used even when the camera is

turned off. Note in particular that leaving Ni-MH

batteries in the camera for a long period will

overdischarge the batteries and may render them

unusable even after recharging.

h Ni-MH batteries will self-discharge even when not

used, and the time for which they can be used may

be shortened as a result.

h Ni-MH batteries will deteriorate rapidly if

overdischarged (e.g. by discharging the batteries in

a flashlight). Use the "Discharging rechargeable

batteries" function provided in the camera to

discharge the batteries.

h Ni-MH batteries have a limited service life. If a

battery can only be used for a short time even after

repeated discharge-charge cycles, it may have

reached the end of its service life.

■ Disposing of Batteries

When disposing of batteries, do so in accordance with

your local waste disposal regulations.

Using Your Camera Correctly

e Read this information and the “Safety Notes” (➡P.135), to make sure you use 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 with strong vibration

h Places with 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

h Next to rubber or vinyl products

■ Damaged by Water or Sand

FinePix S5200 / FinePix S5600 can be damaged on

the inside and outside by water and sand. When you

are at the beach or close to water, make sure that the

camera is not damaged by water or sand. Take care

not to place the camera on a wet surface.

■ Damaged by Condensation

If the camera is carried 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, turn 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.

■ When the Camera is Not Used or is stored

Periods of Time

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

of time, remove the batteries and the xD-Picture Card.

■ Cleaning Your Camera

h Use a blower brush to remove any dust on the lens,

LCD monitor or viewfinder, and then gently wipe the

camera 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 or viewfinder.

h Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dry cloth.

Do not use volatile substances or cleaning products

these items can cause damage.

■ Using the Camera When Traveling

When traveling overseas, do not place your camera in

the check-in baggage. Baggage can be subjected to

violent shocks, and the camera may be damaged

inside or outside.

Power Supply and Batteries

Applicable Batteries

h In the camera, use AA-size alkaline or Ni-MH

(nickel-metal hydride) rechargeable batteries.

Do not use AA-size manganese or nickel-cadmium

(Ni-Cd) batteries in your FinePix S5200 / FinePix

S5600 because the heat created by the batteries

could damage the camera or cause it not to work.

h The life of alkaline batteries varies between brands.

The life of batteries you purchase may be shorter

than those provided with the camera.

Notes on the Batteries

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 batteries with metal objects

such as necklaces or hairpins.

h Do not expose the batteries to water, and keep

batteries from getting wet or stored in moist

locations.

h Do not attempt to take apart or change the batteries,

including battery casings.

h Do not subject the batteries to strong impacts.

h Do not use batteries that are leaking, deformed,

discolored.

h Do not store batteries in warm or humid places.

h Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small

children.

h Make sure that the battery polarity (

≠ and –) is

correct.

h Do not use new with used batteries. Do not use

charged and discharged batteries together.

h Do not use different types or brands of batteries at

the same time.

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

period of time, remove the batteries from the

camera. Note if the camera is left with the batteries

removed, the time and date settings are cleared.

h The batteries feel warm right after being used.

Before removing the batteries, turn the camera off

and wait for the batteries to cool down.

h Since batteries do not work well in cold weather or

locations, warm the batteries by placing them inside

your garments before use. Batteries do not work well

when cold. They will work again when the

temperature returns to normal.

h Soil (such as fingerprints) on the battery terminals

makes the batteries charge less reducing the

number of images. Carefully wipe the battery

terminals with a soft dry cloth before loading.

If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe

the battery compartment thoroughly and then

load new batteries.

If 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.
