■ Image Memory Card

h This Image Memory Card is a new image recording

media (xD-Picture Card) developed for digital
cameras. The Image Memory Card consists of a
semiconductor memory (NAND-type flash memory)
to record digital image data.
The recording process is electrically performed and
enables erasure of existing image data as well as re-
recording of new image data.

h When using a new Memory Card, or a Memory Card

that has been formatted by a PC, be sure to format
the card with your digital camera before using it.

■ Microdrives

Microdrives are compact, lightweight hard disk drives that
conform to the CF+ Type 

II

standard. Due to their ample

capacity for large image data files and their low per-
megabyte recording cost, Microdrives provide a more
economical way to save high-resolution image files.

■ Protecting Your Data

h Images and movies may be lost or destroyed in the

following situations. Please note that FUJIFILM
assumes no responsibility for data that is lost or
destroyed.
1. Removal of the memory card or turning the power off

while the memory card is being accessed (i.e., during
record, erase, initialization, and playback operations).

2. Improper handling and use of the memory card by

the user or third party. 

h Save your important data to another media (i.e., MO

disk, CD-R, hard disk, etc.).

■ Handling Media (all types)

h When inserting the media into the camera, hold the

media straight as you push it in.

h Never remove the media or turn the camera off

during data recording or erasing (media formatting)
as this could be damaged to the media.

h Do not bend, drop or otherwise subject the media to

strong force or shocks.

h Do not use or store these media in places with

affected by strong static electricity or electrical noise.

h Do not use or store media in hot humid places or in

places where they are exposed to corrosive
substances.

■ Handling xD-Picture Card

h When storing xD-Picture Cards, make sure that they

are kept out of the reach of children. An xD-Picture
Card could be swallowed cause suffocation. If a child
swallows an xD-Picture Card, seek medical
attention or call emergency number right away.

h Do not expose an xD-Picture Card to shock. Do not

apply pressure, and avoid bending.

h Do not use the xD-Picture Card in a hot or humid

place.

h Clean the xD-Picture Card with a soft dry piece of

cloth when dirty.

h When carrying or storing an xD-Picture Card, keep it

in the special protective case.

h The xD-Picture Card will work well for long time, but

will sooner or later lose its ability to store and play
back images or movies. If this happens replace it
with a new xD-Picture Card.

h The use of xD-Picture Cards is recommended with

the FinePix S3 Pro.
The recording quality cannot be guaranteed when
xD-Picture Cards other than those manufactured by
FUJIFILM are used.

h The  xD-Picture Card may feel warm when it is

removed from the camera after taking pictures. This
is normal.

h Do not put labels on the xD-Picture Card. Peeling

labels can cause the camera not to work properly.

■ Using Microdrive

h Do not use hard-pointed pens to write on the

Microdrive label.

h Do not peel off the Microdrive label.
h Do not stick additional labels onto a Microdrive.
h When carrying or storing a Microdrive, keep it in the

protective case provided.

h When a Microdrive is used, vibration or impacts

during image data recording may prevent the image
data from being recorded correctly. Put the camera
down carefully when placing it on a desk or table, etc.

h Do not use Microdrive in CF+ Type 

II

slots that do

not have an eject function.

h Take care when handling Microdrive that have been

used for long periods as they may become hot.

h Do not place Microdrives close to strong magnetic

fields.

h Keep Microdrive dry.
h Do not apply strong pressure to the Microdrive cover.

■ Using Compact Flash

Contact the CompactFlash card manufacturer for
information on the CompactFlash functions, operation
details and system requirements.
Card types approved for use with the FinePix S3 Pro
are listed on the FUJIFILM website.
http://home.fujifilm.com/products/digital/
h The CompactFlash card may be hot immediately

after being used in the camera and should be
handled with care.

h Do not touch the card contact area with your fingers

or metal objects.

h Unused CompactFlash cards should be formatted

before being used.

■ Using media with a PC

h When taking pictures using a media that has been

used on a PC, reformat the media using your camera
for best quality.

h When formatting a media, a directory (folder) is

created. Image data is then recorded in this directory.

h Do not change or delete the directory (folder) or file

names on the media because this will make it
impossible to use the media in your camera.

h Always use the camera to erase image data on a

media.

h To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC

and edit the copy.

h Do not copy files other than those that will be used

by the camera.

Always use the AC Power Adapter AC-5VX (sold
separately). The use of an AC Power adapter other than
AC-5VX can cause damage 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 humid

place.

h Do not subject the AC power adapter to strong shocks.
h The AC power adapter may emit a humming. But 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.

h Ni-MH batteries or 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.

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 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 types

of locations:
i Extremely humidity or high temperatures, such as

close to a heating appliance or in direct sunlight

i Places with strong vibration
i In very dusty places

h The battery charger accepts input voltages of 100-240

V AC at 50 or 60 Hz and can be used all over the
world. However, the shape of the plug and socket-
outlet depends on the country of use. Consult your
travel agent for details.
