■ Cautions During Printing■ INSTAX MINI Instant Film and Photos
For details on the handling of film and photos, see theinstructions written on the FUJIFILM INSTAX MINI instantfilm box.
1. Keep film in 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.
2. Do not tear, cut or make a hole in instant film. Do notuse film that is damaged.
3. Use film as soon as possible after inserting it in thecamera.
4. If film has been kept in a place where thetemperature is extremely low or high, allow it tobecome accustomed to a normal temperature before
taking pictures.
5. Use film before the film expiration date referenced on
the package.
6. Avoid airport checked luggage inspection and otherstrong X-ray exposure. Unused film is susceptible tothe effect of fogging, etc. We recommend that you
carry film onto aircraft in carry-on luggage (checkwith the relevant airport for more information).
7. Avoid exposing your instant photos to strong light,
and store them in a cool and dry place.

8. Do not cut, peel apart or puncture new or newly
used instant print film. Film contains small amountof highly caustic paste; paste can remain active up to
10 minutes after instant photo is taken. Be especiallycareful not to let infants or pets put the film into theirmouths. Paste should not come into contact withskin or clothes.
9. If you accidentally touch the paste of unused INSTAXMINI instant print film, immediately wash it off withplenty of water. If the paste comes into contact
with the eyes or mouth, wash the area and thenseek medical attention. The alkalinity of INSTAXMINI instant print film will weaken approximately
10 minutes after the instant photo is ejected fromthe camera.
10. Do not store instant photos in a sealed bag, as thismay cause discoloration.
