Always use the AC-3V AC Power Adapter (sold separately)
with the FinePix2600 ZOOM.
The use of an AC power adapter other than the AC-3V
could result in damage to your camera.
h Ensure that you do not touch the contact areas on the
AC power adapter against any other metal object as this
could cause a short circuit.
h Do not plug in the AC power adapter while you are
operating the camera using batteries. Switch the camera
off first.
h Do not load the batteries while you are operating the
camera using the AC power adapter. Switch the camera
off first.
h If you disconnect the AC power adapter when there are
no batteries in the camera, the date and time settings will
be lost and must be reset.

h There may be vibration noises from inside the battery
charger during use. This is normal and does not indicate
a fault.
h Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries other
than FUJIFILM HR-3UF Ni-MH batteries.
h The battery charger could cause interference if placed
close to a radio during charging. In this event, move the
radio and charger further apart.
h Do not touch the connections or contact points on
rechargeable batteries with other metal objects as this
can cause a short circuit.
h
Do not leave the battery charger in the following locations:
Locations subject to strong vibrations, in very dusty
locations, or in locations with very high humidity or high
temperatures, such as close to a heating appliance or in
direct sunlight.
h
The battery charger accepts input voltages of 100-240 V AC
at 50 or 60 Hz and can be used outside Japan. However,
because the shapes of power sockets vary by country and
by region, an appropriate plug adapter is also required for
each country. Consult your travel agent for details.

If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the battery
compartment thoroughly and then load new batteries.
I 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 in 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 using compact rechargeable batteries
(Ni-MH batteries)
h To charge AA-size Ni-MH batteries, follow the correct
charging procedure using the special charger provided or
the optional fast 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.
h The camera mechanism is such that it draws a minute
amount of current even when the camera is switched off.
Note particularly that Ni-MH batteries will become over-
discharged if left in the camera for a long period and will
no longer be usable even if recharged.
h Ni-MH batteries self-discharge even when they are not
being used. Always charge Ni-MH and Ni-Cd 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 Soil (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.
✽ Memory effect: A phenomenon affecting the battery
characteristics such that the apparent battery capacity
decreases.
h Rechargeable batteries and the battery charger itself will
become warm due to the power stored inside the
batteries. This is normal and does not indicate a fault.
Wherever possible, use the battery charger in a well-
ventilated location.
