Cautions

To ensure that your COOLPIX 100 Card camera continues to operate properly, you should also be sure to observe the following precautions.

Do not touch the lens with your fingers

The proper procedure for cleaning the camera’s lens is described in “ Caring for Your Camera.”

Do not drop

Your camera may malfunction if subjected to strong shocks or vibration.

Keep away from strong magnetic fields

Do not use or store your camera in the vicinity of equipment that produces strong electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields. The magnetic fields produced by equipment such as radio transmitters or household television sets may affect your camera’s internal memory and functioning.

Keep dry

The COOLPIX 100 is not waterproof, and may malfunction if immersed in water or exposed to high levels of humidity.

Keep free of salt, sand, and dust

After using your camera at the beach or seaside, wipe off any sand or salt with a damp cloth and then dry your camera thoroughly.

Avoid sudden changes in temperature

Sudden changes in temperature, such as occur when entering or leaving a heated building on a cold day, can cause condensation inside the camera. To prevent condensation, place the camera in its carrying case or a plastic bag before exposing it to sudden changes in temperature.
