9Focus the viewfinder.
After removing the lens cap, rotate the diopter
adjustment control until the AF area brackets are
in sharp focus.
When operating the control with
your eye to the viewfinder, be careful not to put
your fingers or fingernails in your eye.
AAdjusting Viewfinder Focus
If you are unable to focus the viewfinder as described above, select single-servo autofocus
(AF-S; 033), single-point AF (c; 036), and the center focus point, and then frame a high-
contrast subject in the center focus point and press the shutter-release button halfway to
focus the camera.
With the camera in focus, use the diopter adjustment control to bring the
subject into clear focus in the viewfinder.
If necessary, viewfinder focus can be further
adjusted using optional corrective lenses.
D During Charging
Do not move the charger or touch the battery during charging.
Failure to observe this
precaution could in very rare instances result in the charger showing that charging is
complete when the battery is only partially charged.
Remove and reinsert the battery to
begin charging again.
DCharging the Battery
Read and follow the warnings and cautions on pages x–xi and 218–220 of this manual.
Charge
the battery indoors at ambient temperatures of 5 °C–35 °C (41 °F–95 °F).
Do not use the
battery at ambient temperatures below 0 °C/32 °F or above 40 °C/104 °F; failure to observe
this precaution could damage the battery or impair its performance.
Capacity may be
reduced and charging times may increase at battery temperatures from 0 °C/32 °F to 15 °C/
59 °F and from 45 °C/113 °F to 60 °C/140 °F.
The battery will not charge if its temperature is
below 0 °C (32 °F) or above 60 °C (140 °F).
If the CHARGE lamp flashes quickly (about eight
times a second) during charging, confirm that the temperature is in the correct range and
then unplug the charger and remove and reinsert the battery.
If the problem persists, cease
use immediately and take battery and charger to your retailer or a Nikon-authorized service
representative.
Do not attempt to charge a fully-charged battery.
Failure to observe this precaution will
result in reduced battery performance.
Use the charger with compatible batteries only.
Unplug when not in use.
