Caring for the Product

The Camera

To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the precautions described below in addition to the warnings in “For Your Safety” (Aviii-xi) and “<Important> Shockproof, Waterproof, Dustproof, Condensation” (Axv-xxi) when using or storing the device.

B Do Not Drop

The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration. Additionally, do not touch or apply force to the lens.

B Handle the Lens and All Moving Parts with Care

Do not apply force to the lens, lens cover, monitor, memory card slot, or battery chamber. These parts are easily damaged. Applying force to the lens cover could result in camera malfunction or damage to the lens. Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury caused by broken glass and to prevent the liquid crystal from the display touching the skin or entering the eyes or mouth.

B Do Not Allow Damp to Enter Inside the Camera

This camera 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 freshwater for 10 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.
