Common Sense Camera Care

• ■ Handling the Camera and Battery
  • CAUTION – Do not expose to excessive heat such as sunshine,
  fire or the like during use, storage, or transportation. An
  explosion or leakage of flammable liquid or gas could
  result. Also, ensure proper disposal in accordance with the
  instructions below.
  • CAUTION – Do not dispose of the lithium battery into fire or
  a hot oven, or mechanically crush or cut a battery, that can
  result in an explosion.
  • CAUTION – Do not subject to extremely low air pressure at
  high altitude. An explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid
  or gas could result.

• Camera Care

  1. Do not open the film door until you have used up the film. Doing so will expose the remaining film, causing the remainder of the film pack to become unusable.
  2. Your camera is a precision instrument. Do not get it wet or drop it. Also, do not expose it to sand, dust or dirt.
  3. Do not use a strap made for cellular phones or other similar electronic products. These straps are usually too weak to hold your camera securely. For safety, use only straps designed for your camera, and use only as specifically intended and instructed.
  4. Do not use cleaning products or solvents such as those with bleach or alcohol to remove dirt.
  5. In hot weather, do not leave your camera in hot places such as in a car or on the beach. Do not leave it in damp places or places where weather exposure could result.
  6. Moth repellent gas such as naphthalene may affect your camera and prints. Store your camera and photo prints in a place where exposure to harmful cleaning or other household elements will be avoided.
  7. Note that the temperature range within which your camera should be used is 41°F to 104°F (5°C to 40°C).
  8. Take great care to ensure that your prints do not violate copyright, image rights, privacy or other personal rights and do not offend public decency. Actions that violate the rights of others, are contrary to public decency or constitute a nuisance may be punishable by law or otherwise legally actionable.

• Handling the LCD Monitor
  As the LCD monitor can be easily damaged, do not scratch the surface with a solid material. To avoid the LCD monitor getting damaged, we recommend you attach a protective, clear plastic sheet (commercially available) on the monitor.

• Charging the Battery
  The battery is not charged at shipment. Charge the battery completely before use.
  Charge the battery using the supplied Micro USB cable and the USB Adapter from your Smartphone. Charging times will increase at ambient temperatures below 50°F (10°C) or above 95°F (35°C). Do not attempt to charge the battery in environments with temperatures above 104°F (40°C); at temperatures below 41°F (5°C), the battery will not charge.

• Battery Life
  At normal temperatures, the battery can be recharged about 300 times. A noticeable decrease in the length of time the battery will hold a charge indicates that it has reached the end of its service life.

• Caution: Handling the Battery
  The battery and camera body may become slightly warm to the touch after extended use. This is normal.

• Certification marks acquired by the camera are located inside the film chamber.

• Cautions During Printing
  
  Do not shake the camera while printing.
  Do not drop the camera while printing.
  Do not cover the film ejection slot while printing.

• INSTAX MINI Instant Film and Print Care
  This camera uses INSTAX MINI instant print film, sold separately. See FUJIFILM INSTAX MINI instant film pack use instructions. Follow all instructions for safe and proper use.

  1. Keep the film in a cool place. Do not leave the film in a place where the temperature is extremely high (e.g., in a closed car) for many hours.
  2. Do not puncture, tear, or cut INSTAX MINI instant film. If film becomes damaged, do not use.
  3. When you load a film pack, use the film as soon as possible.
  4. If the film has been kept in a place where the temperature is extremely high or low, bring it to room temperature before loading or starting to print photos.
  5. Be sure to use the film before the expiration or “Use Before” date.
  6. Avoid airport checked luggage inspection and other strong X-ray illumination. Such exposure may cause fogging and otherwise affect your unused film. Carrying your camera and film onto an aircraft in your carry-on luggage is recommended. (Check with each airport for more information.)
  7. Avoid strong light, and keep the developed prints in a cool and dry place.
  8. Do not puncture or cut the film as it contains a small amount of caustic paste (high alkaline). Never let children or animals put the film into their mouth. Also pay attention so that the paste does not come into contact with skin or clothes.
  9. If the paste inside the film comes into contact with skin or clothes, immediately wash off with plenty of water.
     If the paste comes into contact with the eyes or mouth, immediately wash the area with plenty of water and contact a doctor. Note that the alkaline inside the film remains active for about 10 minutes after the photo has been printed.

CAUTION

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by FUJIFILM responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices.

There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. This device has been tested and found to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines.
