B Notes About the Monitor
Monitors and electronic viewfinders are constructed with extremely high precision;
at least 99.99% of pixels are effective, with no more than 0.01% being missing or
defective. Hence while these displays may contain pixels that are always lit (white,
red, blue, or green) or always off (black), this is not a malfunction and has no effect
on images recorded with the device.
Due to the general characteristics of OLED monitors, prolonged or repeated
display of the same screen or image may result in screen burn. Screen burn can be
recognized by decreased brightness in portions of the monitor or mottled display.
In some cases, screen burn may become permanent. However, images are in no
way affected by screen burn.
To prevent screen burn, do not set monitor brightness higher than necessary and
do not display the same screen or image for an extended period of time.
Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.
The monitor is lit by an LED backlight. Should the monitor begin to dim or flicker,
contact your Nikon-authorized service representative.
The Battery
Be sure to read and follow the warnings in “For Your Safety” (Avii-ix) before
use.
Check the battery level before using the camera and replace or charge the
battery if necessary. Do not continue charging once the battery is fully
charged as this will result in reduced battery performance. Whenever
possible, carry a fully charged spare battery when taking images on
important occasions.
Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above
40°C (104°F).
Charge the battery indoors with an ambient temperature of 5°C to 35°C
(41°F to 95°F) before use.
When charging the battery inserted into this camera using the charging AC
adapter or a computer, the battery is not charged at battery temperatures
below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F).
Note that the battery may become hot during use; wait for the battery to
cool before charging. Failure to observe these precautions could damage
the battery, impair its performance, or prevent it from charging normally.
On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. If an exhausted
battery is used at a low temperature, the camera will not turn on. Be sure
that the battery is fully charged before heading outside to take images in
cold weather. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as
necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge.
Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning.
Should the battery terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry
cloth before use.
