Caring for Your Camera
Cleaning
Lens
One key to cleaning the lens is to not touch it with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that you pump to produce a stream of air out the other). To remove fingerprints or other stains that can not be removed with a blower, wipe the lens with a soft cloth, using a spiral motion that starts in the center of the lens and works out to the edges.
Monitor
Remove dust or lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints and other stains, clean the monitor with a soft, dry cloth, being careful not to apply pressure.
Avoid contact with liquid crystal
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 en- tering the eyes or mouth.
Body
Use a blower to remove dust, dirt, or sand then wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. After using the camera at the beach or seaside, wipe off any sand or salt with a dry cloth lightly dampened with fresh water, then dry thoroughly.
The camera may be damaged if foreign matter gets inside the camera body. Nikon cannot accept liability for damage caused by dirt or sand.
Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.
