Caring for the Products

The Camera

To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the following precautions when using or storing the device.

Be sure to read and follow the warnings of “For Your Safety” (Avi to ix) and “<Important> Shockproof, Waterproof, Dustproof, Condensation, GPS“ (Axi to xvii) thoroughly before using the products.

BDo Not Allow Damp to Enter Inside the Camera

The COOLPIX AW110 is provided with JIS/IEC protection class 8 (IPX8) equivalent waterproofing. If water seeps inside the camera, however, this could cause the components to rust and result in a high repair charge or the camera may not be repairable. After using the camera at the beach or underwater, make sure that the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is firmly closed, and then immerse the camera in a shallow container filled with fresh water for ten minutes. After using the camera underwater, do not leave the camera wet for 60 minutes or more. This could cause deterioration of the waterproofing performance.

BPrevent Water from Seeping Inside the Camera

If the inside of the camera becomes wet, this could result in camera malfunction and the camera may not be repairable. To prevent water seeping (water submersion) accidents, be sure to observe the following cautions when using the camera.

•When the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is closed, make sure that the camera strap, hair, lint, dust, sand grains, other foreign substances, or dirt are not attached on the waterproofing packing and portions that make a contact with the waterproofing packing.

•Do not open and close the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover in areas exposed to water spray, high winds, dust or sand.

•When an external force is applied on the camera, it could become deformed or the airtight seals may become damaged and cause water to seep inside the camera. Do not place a heavy object on the camera, drop the camera, or apply excessive force on the camera.

•If water seeps inside the camera, immediately stop using the camera. Wipe off moisture from the camera, and at once take the camera to your Nikon-authorized service representative.

BShock and Vibration

Do not drop the camera, strike it against a hard object such as a rock, or throw it at a water surface. Do not leave the camera in an area subject to vibration. If the camera is subjected to excessive shock, this could result in camera malfunction or damage.

BMaximum Depth

The COOLPIX AW110 is designed to withstand water pressure up to a depth of 18 m (59 ft) for approximately 60 minutes. At greater depth, water could seep inside the camera, resulting in camera malfunction.
