Technical Notes
To ensure continued enjoyment of your Nikon product, observe the following
precautions when storing or using the device:
Keep dry
The device will be damaged if im-
mersed in water or subjected to high
levels of moisture.
Handle the lens and all moving parts
with care
Do not apply force to the lens, monitor,
or to the connector, card slot, or bat-
tery chamber covers. These parts are
especially susceptible to damage.
Do not point the lens at strong light
sources for extended periods
Avoid pointing the lens at the sun
or other strong light sources for ex-
tended periods when using or storing
the camera. Intense light may cause
deterioration in the CCD image sen-
sor, producing a white blur effect in
photographs.
Turn the product off before removing or
disconnecting the power source
Do not unplug the product or remove
the batteries while the product is on, or
while images are being recorded or de-
leted. Forcibly cutting power in these
circumstances could result in loss of
data or in damage to product memory
or internal circuitry. To prevent an ac-
cidental interruption of power, avoid
carrying the product from one place
to another while the AC adapter (avail-
able separately) is connected.
Do not drop
The product may malfunction if sub-
jected to strong shocks or vibration.
Keep away from strong magnetic fi elds
Do not use or store this device in the
vicinity of equipment that generates
strong electromagnetic radiation or
magnetic fi elds. Strong static charges
or the magnetic fi elds produced by
equipment such as radio transmitters
could interfere with the display, dam-
age data stored on the memory card,
or affect the product’s internal circuitry.
Avoid sudden changes in temperature
Sudden changes in temperature, such
as occur when entering or leaving a
heated building on a cold day, can
cause condensation inside the device.
To prevent condensation, place the de-
vice in a carrying case or a plastic bag
before exposing it to sudden changes
in temperature.
