Using Your Camera Correctly
e Read this information and the “Safety Notes” ( ➡P.126), 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
The FinePix F810 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 battery and the xD-Picture card .
■ Cleaning Your Camera
h
Use a blower brush to brush away any dust on the lens,
LCD monitor, 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.
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 violent
shocks, and the camera may be damaged inside or
outside.
Notes on the Power Supply
This camera uses the Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery
NP-40. Note the points below when using the rechargeable
battery. Take particular care to read the Safety Notes to
make sure that you use the battery correctly.
✽ When shipped, the NP-40 is not fully charged. Always
charge the NP-40 before using it.
h When carrying the NP-40,
install it in a digital camera or
keep it in the soft case.
h When storing the NP-40,
place it inside the special soft
case provided.
■ Battery Features
h The NP-40 gradually loses its charge even when not
used. Use a NP-40 that has been charged recently (in
the last day or two) to take pictures.
h To maximize the life of the NP-40, turn the camera off as
quickly as possible when it is not being used.
h The number of available frames will be lower in cold
locations or at low temperatures. Take along a spare
fully charged NP-40.
You can also increase the amount of power produced by
putting the NP-40 in your pocket or another warm place
to heat it and then loading it into the camera just before
you take a picture.
If you are using a heating pad, take care not to place the
NP-40 directly against the pad. The camera may not
operate if you use a depleted NP-40 in cold conditions.
■ Charging the Battery
h You can charge the battery using the camera and the AC
power adapter (included).
i The NP-40 can be charged at ambient temperatures
between 0°C and +40°C (+32°F and +104°F). At an
ambient temperature of +23°C (+73°F), it takes
approximately 2 hours to charge a fully depleted
NP-40 battery.
i You should charge the NP-40 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-40 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because the
performance of the NP-40 is impaired.
i You cannot charge the NP-40 at temperatures of 0°C
(+32°F) or below.
h You can also use the optional Battery Charger BC-65 to
charge the NP-40. When charging, use the NP-40
battery adapter supplied with the BC-65 (Refer to the
Owner’s Manual for details).
i The NP-40 can be charged using the BC-65 Battery
Charger at ambient temperatures between 0°C and
+40°C (+32°F and +104°F). At an ambient temperature
of +23°C (+73°F), it takes approximately 90 minutes to
charge a fully depleted NP-40 battery.
i You should charge the NP-40 at an ambient
temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and
+95°F). If you charge the NP-40 at a temperature
outside this range, charging takes longer because the
performance of the NP-40 is impaired.
h The NP-40 does not need to be fully discharged or
exhausted flat before being charged.
h The NP-40 may feel warm after it has been charged or
immediately after being used. This is perfectly normal.
h Do not recharge a fully charged NP-40.
■ Battery Life
At normal temperatures, the NP-40 can be used at least
300 times.
If the time for which the NP-40 provides power shortens
markedly, this indicates that the NP-40 has reached the
end of its effective life and should be replaced.
The Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery NP-40 is both
compact and capable of storing large quantities of
power. However, if it is stored for long periods while
charged, the performance of the battery can be impaired.
h If the battery will not be used for some time, run the
battery out before storing it.
h If you do not intend to use the camera for a long
period of time, remove the batteries from the camera.
h Place the battery pack inside the soft case and store
in a cool place.
✽ The battery should be stored in a dry location with
an ambient temperature between +15°C and +25°C
(+59°F and +77°F).
✽
Do not leave the battery in hot or extremely cold
places.
