Once you have attached both ends of the strap, check carefully to ensure that the strap is firmly secured. LOADING THE BATTERIES Compatible batteries h AA-size alkaline batteries (4), or optional AA-size Ni-MH batteries (4). ! G Please use the same brand and grade AA-size alkaline batteries as those supplied with the camera. N How to use the battery N h Never use the following types of battery, as this could cause serious Outer casing problems such as battery fluid leakage or overheating : 1. Batteries with split or peeling outer casings 2. Combinations of different types of batteries or new and used batteries together h Do not use manganese or Ni-Cd batteries. h Soil, such as fingermarks on the poles of the batteries can significantly reduce the amount of time for which the batteries can be used. h The time for which AA-size alkaline batteries (referred to hereafter simply as alkaline batteries) can be used varies depending on the brand, and some alkaline batteries may stop providing power more quickly than those supplied with the camera. Note also that due to their nature, the time for which alkaline batteries can be used decreases in cold conditions (0°C to +10°C). The use of AA-size Ni-MH batteries is recommended for this reason. h Use Fujifilm Battery charger (sold separately) to charge AA-size Ni-MH batteries. h See P.97-99 for other notes on using batteries. h When first purchased or if left unused for a log period, the time for which AA-size Ni-MH batteries or rechargeable Battery NH-10 can be used may be shorter. See P.98 for details. Getting Ready ! G Failure to attach the strap correctly can result in the camera being dropped. 2 Pull the lens cap cord through the strap. !
