Notes on Safety Operations

CAUTION

Do not disassemble
Touching the internal parts of the camera or lens could result in injury.
Repairs should be performed only by qualified technicians. Should the
camera or lens break open as the result of a fall or other accident, take the
product to a Nikon-authorized service representative for inspection after
unplugging the product and/or removing the battery.
Turn off immediately in the event of malfunction
Should you notice smoke or an unusual smell coming from the camera or
lens, remove the battery immediately, taking care to avoid burns. Continued
operation could result in injury. After removing or disconnecting the power
source, take the equipment to a Nikon-authorized service representative for
inspection.
Do not use the camera or lens in the presence of flammable gas
If the electronic equipment is operated in the presence of flammable gas, it
could result in an explosion or a 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 or lens unit dry. Failure to do so could result in a fire or
electric shock.
• Do not handle or touch the unit with wet hands. Failure to do so could
result in electric shock.
• In backlit shooting, keep the sun well out of the frame.
The sunlight could focus into the lens body and cause a fire. When the
sun gets close to the frame, it can also cause a fire.
• When the lens will not be used for a long 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 might focus sunlight onto an object.
