Caring for the Camera
To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the following
precautions when storing or using the device.
D Handle the lens and all moving parts with care
Do not apply force to the lens or monitor or
to the lens cover, connector cover, or battery-
chamber/memory card slot cover. Should
the monitor break, care should be taken to
avoid injury due to broken glass and to pre-
vent the liquid crystal from the display from
touching the skin or entering the eyes or
mouth.
D Do not point the lens at strong light sources for
extended periods
Avoid framing the sun or other strong light
sources for extended periods when using or
storing the camera. Intense light may cause
deterioration in the image sensor, produc-
ing a white blur effect in photographs.
D Turn the product off before removing or discon-
necting the power source
Do not unplug the product or remove the
battery while the product is on, or while im-
ages are being recorded or deleted. Forc-
ibly cutting power could result in loss of
data or in damage to product memory or
circuitry. To prevent an accidental interrup-
tion of power, do not move the product
while the AC adapter is connected.
D Keep dry
The device will be damaged if immersed in
water or subjected to high levels of moisture.
D Do not drop
The product may malfunction if subjected
to strong shocks or vibration.
D Keep away from strong magnetic fields
Do not use or store this device in the vicinity
of equipment that generates strong electro-
magnetic radiation or magnetic fields.
Strong static charges or the magnetic fields
produced by equipment such as radio trans-
mitters could interfere with the monitor,
damage stored data, or affect the product’s
internal circuitry.
D 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 conden-
sation inside the device. To prevent con-
densation, place the device in a carrying
case or plastic bag before exposing it to
sudden changes in temperature.
