Introduction
If a foreign substance adheres to the
outside of the camera or inside of the
battery-chamber/memory card slot
cover (in locations such as yellow
waterproof packing, hinges, memory
card slot, or terminals), immediately
remove it with a blower. If a foreign
substance adheres to the waterproof
packing inside of the battery-chamber/
memory card slot cover, remove it with the included brush. Do not use the
included brush for anything other than cleaning the waterproof packing.
If a foreign substance such as suntan oil, sunscreen lotion, hot spring, bath
mix powder, detergent, soap, organic solvent, oil, or alcohol adheres to the
camera, immediately wipe it off. This could cause deterioration of the
camera exterior.
Do not leave the camera in low temperature conditions in cold climate
regions or in high-temperature conditions of 40°C (104°F) or more (in
particular, a place exposed to direct sunlight, inside the cabin of a car, on a
boat, on the beach, or near heating apparatus) for a long period of time. This
could cause deterioration of the waterproof performance.
Before Using the Camera Underwater
Remove the strap for land use before using the camera underwater.
1. Make sure that there are no foreign substances inside the battery-
chamber/memory card slot cover.
Any foreign substances such as sand, dust or hair inside the battery-
chamber/memory card slot cover should be removed with a blower.
Any liquid such as water droplets inside the battery-chamber/memory
card slot cover should be wiped off with a soft dry cloth.
2. Make sure that the waterproof packing of the battery-chamber/
memory card slot cover is not cracked or deformed.
The waterproof performance of waterproof packing may start to
deteriorate after one year.
If the waterproof packing begins to deteriorate, consult your retailer or
Nikon-authorized service representative.
Make sure that the waterproof packing is not detached from the camera.
3. Make sure that the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is
firmly closed.
Rotate the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover latch until it clicks
into place. Make sure that the thin cord of the camera strap does not get
caught.
Make sure that the latch indicator indicates the “Close” status.
