Caring for the Camera and Battery

Keep dry

This product is not waterproof, and may malfunction if immersed in water or ex- posed to high levels of humidity. Rusting of the internal mechanism can cause irrepa- rable damage.

Keep free of salt, sand, and dust After using your camera at the beach or seaside, wipe off any sand or salt with a lightly dampened cloth and then dry your camera thoroughly.

Do not touch the lens with your fingers The proper procedure for cleaning the lens is described in “Technical Notes: Caring for Your Camera.”

Handle the lens and all moving parts with care

Do not apply force to the lens or to the battery, card, and connector covers. These parts are especially susceptible to damage.

Turn the product off before removing the battery or unplugging the AC adapter

Do not unplug the product or remove the battery while the product is on, or while images are being recorded or deleted. Forcibly cutting power to the product in these circumstances could result in loss of data or in damage to product memory or internal circuitry. To prevent an accidental interruption of power, avoid carrying the product from one location to another while the AC adapter is connected.

Do not drop

The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shocks or vibration.

Keep away from strong magnetic fields Do not use or store this device in the vicin- ity of equipment that generates strong electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields. Strong static charges or the mag- netic fields produced by equipment such as radio transmitters could interfere with the monitor, damage data stored on the memory card, or affect the product’s inter- nal circuitry.

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 conden- sation inside the device. To prevent con- densation, place the device in a carrying case or a plastic bag before exposing it to sudden changes in temperature.

Notes on the monitor

•The monitor may contain a few pixels that are always lit or that do not light. This is a characteristic common to all TFT LCD monitors and does not indicate a mal- function. Images recorded with the prod- uct will not be affected.

•Images in the monitor may be difficult to see in a bright light.

•The monitor is lit by an LED backlight. Should the monitor begin to dim or flicker, contact your Nikon service repre- sentative.

•Do not apply pressure to the monitor, as this could cause damage or malfunction. Dust or lint adhering to the monitor can be removed with a blower brush. Stains can be removed by rubbing the surface lightly with a soft cloth or chamois leather.

•Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury due to broken glass and to prevent the liquid crystal from the monitor touching the skin or entering the eyes or mouth.
