Taking Pictures
Do not open the back camera cover until you have used all images in the loaded INSTAX Mini film pack. Opening the camera door will expose the remainder of the unused film pack, turning it white and rendering it no longer usable.

- Hold the camera, look through the viewfinder of the camera to frame your desired composition, and press the shutter button.The shutter button cannot be pressed while the flash is charging.
- When the sound of the film being ejected stops, grasp the edge of the ejected film and take the film out.
The film counter decreases in numerical order, counting down from “10” with each photo taken. “0” will be displayed when the film is finished and after the last photo has been taken.
- When you have finished taking photos, turn off the camera by pushing the lens barrel back in.
If the camera malfunctions, remove the batteries while the power is on and then reinsert them to reset the camera.

Handling
Handling of Camera
- The camera is a precision instrument, so do not get it wet, drop it, or subject it to shock. Also, do not place the camera where it will be exposed to sand, dirt, dust, or other particles.
- Before using a commercially available strap, check the strength of the strap. Be especially careful when using a strap for mobile phones and smartphones because such straps are made for lightweight devices.
- If you are not using your camera for a long interval, unload the batteries and keep it where they will avoid heat, dust, and moisture.
- Remove soil and dust from the viewfinder window, etc. with an air blower or by wiping gently with a piece of a soft cloth.
- Do not use solvents such as thinner or alcohol to wipe off the dirt.
- Do not leave the camera in a closed motor vehicle, another hot place, a humid place, on the beach, etc. for any period of time.
- Moth repellent gas such as naphthalene will adversely affect the camera and film. Avoid keeping the camera and film in a chest of drawers, etc. with mothballs.
- The operating temperature range of this camera is 41°F (+5°C) to 104°F (+40°C).
- This camera may occasionally malfunction because it is controlled by a microcomputer. If it malfunctions, remove the batteries and then reinsert them to reset the camera.
Handling of INSTAX Mini Film and PhotosFor details on the handling of film and photos, see the instructions of FUJIFILM INSTAX Mini instant film.
- Keep the film a cool place. In particular, do not leave film in an extremely hot place, such as in a closed motor vehicle, for a long period of time.
- Use film as soon as possible after inserting it in the camera.
- If the film has been kept in a place where the temperature is extremely low or high, allow it to become accustomed to a normal temperature before taking pictures.
- Use film before the film expiration date referenced on the package.
- Avoid airport checked luggage inspection and other strong X-ray exposure. The unused film is susceptible to the effect of fogging, etc. We recommend that you carry film onto aircraft in carry-on luggage (check with the relevant airport for more information).
- Avoid exposing photos to strong light, and store them in a cool and dry place.
- Do not make a hole in film or tear or cut film. Do not use film that is damaged.
- Do not cut or disassemble the film for this camera as it contains black caustic alkali paste. Be especially careful not to let infants or pets put the film into their mouths. Also, take care that the paste does not come into contact with skin and clothes.
- If you accidentally touch the paste of unused film, immediately wash it off with plenty of water. If the paste comes into contact with the eyes or mouth, wash the area and then seek medical attention. The alkalinity of this film will weaken approximately10 minutes after the photo is ejected from the camera.

FCC Statement
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
- (1) this device may not cause harmful interference.
- this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

CAUTION
This product 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 product 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 product does cause harmful interference to radio or television, which can be determined by turning the product 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 product and receiver.
- Connect the product 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 radiofrequency 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. The “INSTAX Mini 11” 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.

About 10 pictures can be taken with one film pack. However, it depends on how much you use the flash, and how much time passes between shots. If you use the flash often, or if there is a long time between shots, fewer pictures will be possible than if you use the flash infrequently and shoot close-ups without much time passing between shots. If you use all of your film packs without recharging them, fewer pictures will be possible than if you recharge your batteries often and take several shots per film pack charge cycle. Additionally, it is not recommended that you leave your camera turned on for an extended period of time while not taking photos; doing so will cause your batteries to discharge more quickly than normal and may shorten their lifespan significantly. If left unused for an extended period of time with batteries installed, your camera may leak battery fluid or become damaged by battery leakage; please remove your batteries from your camera when not using it for an extended period of time or before storing it for an extended period of time (such as during winter). If storing your camera for an extended period of time without batteries installed, we recommend that you remove and store any INSTAX Mini film packs separately from your camera—this will help prevent damage caused by exposure to light as well as prevent any damage caused by battery leakage should any leak from within your camera over time while not in use or during storage (such as during winter). If storing your camera for an extended period of time with batteries installed, we recommend that you remove and store any INSTAX Mini film packs separately from your camera—this will help prevent damage caused by exposure to light as well as prevent any damage caused by battery leakage should any leak from within your camera over time while not in use or during storage (such as during winter).

If you are experiencing issues with your instax mini 11, 9 or 8 not turning on or the mode indicator lights keep flashing (mini 9 and 8 models only), please check which batteries you are using.

We recommend replacing the batteries to see whether this solves the issue
