Observe the following precaution when
handling the battery charger
If an MH-71 battery charger is provided
with the camera, observe the following
precautions:

tion could result in fi re or electric shock.
• Dust on or near the metal parts of the
plug should be removed with a dry
cloth. Continued use could result in
fi re.

near the battery charger during thun-
derstorms. Failure to observe this pre-
caution could result in electric shock.
• Do not damage, modify, forcibly tug or
bend the power cable, place it under
heavy objects, or expose it to heat or
ame. Should the insulation be dam-
aged and the wires become exposed,
take it to a Nikon-authorized service
