■Cura dell’obiettivo

•Non afferrare o mantenere l’obiettivo o la fotocamera usando solo il paraluce.

•Mantenere puliti i contatti CPU.

•Nel caso in cui la guarnizione in gomma di innesto obiettivo sia danneggiata, interrompere immediatamente l’utilizzo e portare l’obiettivo ad un centro di assistenza autorizzata Nikon per la riparazione.

•Usare un soffietto per rimuovere polvere e pelucchi dalla superficie della lente dell’obiettivo. Per rimuovere macchie e impronte digitali, applicare una piccola quantità di etanolo o di pulitore per lenti su un tessuto in cotone o in micro-fibra e pulire la lente con un movimento circolare dal centro verso l’esterno, avendo cura di non lasciare macchie e di non toccare il vetro con le dita.

•Per la pulizia della lente non usare mai solventi organici, come solventi per vernici o benzene.

•Il paraluce o filtri NC possono essere usati per proteggere l’elemento frontale dell’obiettivo.

•Attaccare i tappi anteriore e posteriore prima di riporre l’obiettivo nella sua borsa flessibile.

•Se si prevede di non utilizzare l’obiettivo per un periodo prolungato, conservarlo in un luogo fresco e asciutto, onde evitare che si creino muffa e ruggine. Non conservare in luoghi esposti alla luce diretta del sole o in presenza di naftalina o canfora.
