the product to a Nikon-authorized service representative

 

for inspection.

 

Do not use the camera or lens in the presence of

 

flammable gas

 

Operating electronic equipment in the presence of

 

flammable gas could result in an explosion or fire.

 

Do not look at the sun through the lens or viewfinder

 

Viewing the sun or other strong light sources through the

 

lens or viewfinder could cause permanent visual

 

impairment.

Keep out of reach of children

Particular care should be taken to prevent infants from putting the batteries or other small parts into their mouths.

Observe the following precautions when handling the camera and lens

Keep the camera and lens unit dry. Failure to do so could result in fire or electric shock.

Do not handle or touch the camera or lens unit with wet hands. Failure to do so could result in electric shock.

When shooting with back-lighting, do not point the lens at the sun or allow sunlight to pass directly down the lens as this may cause the camera to overheat and possibly cause a fire.

When the lens will not be used for an extended period of time, attach both front and rear lens caps and store the lens away from direct sunlight. Failure to do so could result in a fire, as the lens may focus sunlight onto a flammable object.
