4Grease the O-ring.

If the O-ring is not properly greased, it may crack or peel, causing leaks. If the surface of

the O-ring appears dry, place a drop of silicon grease on your index finger and spread grease on the O-ring by sliding it between your thumb and index finger, evenly covering the ring. Do

not use cloth or paper, as these may leave fibers on the O-ring. Note that applying too much grease may cause foreign objects to adhere more readily to the ring, preventing the case from sealing properly.

5Replace the O-ring.

Making sure the O-ring and guide are free of foreign objects, place the O-ring so that it

En

runs evenly at the same level all the way round

the O-ring guide, without undue stretching

 

 

or twisting and without protruding from the

 

guide.

DO-Rings

The O-ring requires periodic replacement. Replace the O-ring immediately if it is damaged, cracked, warped, or has lost its elasticity. O-rings should be replaced at least once a year. Use only silicon grease designated for use in this product; replacement O-rings and silicon grease can be purchased from a Nikon camera retailer or Nikon-authorized service agent. Do not use COOLPIX or NIKONOS O-ring lubricant (grease).

DCleaning

Do not use detergents or volatile chemicals such as alcohol or thinner when cleaning the case or O-ring. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to the case or O-ring.
