Introduction
Notes About Operating Temperature and
Humidity and Condensation
The operation of this camera has been tested at temperatures from −10°C to
+40°C (14°F to 104°F).
When you use the camera in cold climate regions, observe the following
precautions. Keep the camera and spare batteries in a warm place before use.
• The performance of the batteries (number of images shot and shooting
time) will drop temporarily.
• If the camera is in a very cold state, the performance may drop temporarily,
for example, the monitor may be darker than normal immediately after the
camera is turned on or residual images may be produced.
• When snow or water droplets adhere to the exterior of the camera,
immediately wipe them off.
- If the buttons or switches are frozen, they may not operate smoothly.
- If the microphone or speaker openings are clogged with water droplets,
the sound may deteriorate or become distorted.
bOperating environmental conditions such as
temperature and humidity may cause fogging
(condensation) on the inside of the monitor or
lens. This is not the camera malfunction or
defect.
bEnvironmental conditions that are likely to cause
condensation inside of the camera
Fogging (condensation) may occur on the inside of the monitor or lens in the
following environmental conditions where there are sharp temperature changes or
high humidity.
• The camera is suddenly immersed in low temperature underwater from
high temperature on land.
• The camera is brought to a warm place such as inside a building from the
cold climate outside.
• The battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is opened or closed in a high-
humidity environment.
bClearing the fogging
• Open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover after turning off the
camera in a place where the ambient temperature is stable (avoid any place
that has high-temperature/high-humidity, sand or dust).
To clear the fogging, remove the battery and memory card, and leave the
camera with the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover open to allow
the camera to adjust to the ambient temperature.
• If the fogging does not clear, consult your retailer or Nikon-authorized
service representative.
