Introduction
If a foreign substance adheres to the outside of the
camera or the inside of the battery-chamber/memory
card slot cover (such as the hinge, memory card slot, and
connectors), remove it immediately with a blower. If a
foreign substance adheres to the waterproof packing
inside 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.
Do not leave the camera 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 a heating device) for a long period of time. This could cause deterioration of
the waterproof performance.
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 (A3) 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.
3. Make sure that the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is firmly closed.
Slide the cover until it clicks into place.
