First Steps
The MH-61 Battery Charger
Before using the MH-61, read and follow the warnings and notices on pages
i–v of this manual.
The MH-61 is for use with EN-EL5 batteries. Do not use with non-compatible batteries.
The supplied power cable is intended solely for use with the MH-61 and is for domestic
use only. It may be necessary to purchase another cable for use abroad; consult with a
local Nikon-authorized retailer or service representative.
EN-EL5 Batteries
Before using the EN-EL5, read and follow the warnings and notices on pages
i–v and 140 of this manual.
Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F) or above 40 °C
(104 °F). During charging, the temperature should be in the vicinity of 5–35 °C (41–
95 °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.
When the Battery Is Not in Use
When the battery is not in use, remove it from the camera or battery charger and re-
place the terminal cover. The camera and battery charger draw minute amounts of cur-
rent even when off; if left in place, the battery could be drained to the point that it no
longer functions.
Recycle Used Batteries
Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with
local regulations.
