Caring for the Camera
To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the following
precautions when storing or using the device.
Keep dry
The device will be damaged if immersed
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, moni-
tor or to the connector, card slot, or
battery-chamber covers. These parts
are especially susceptible to damage.
Applying force to the lens cover could
result in camera malfunction or damage
to the lens.
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 extended
periods when using or storing the cam-
era. Intense light may cause deteriora-
tion in the CCD image sensor, produc-
ing 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
deleted. Forcibly cutting power in these
circumstances could result in loss of data
or in damage to product memory or in-
ternal circuitry. To prevent an accidental
interruption of power, avoid carrying
the product from one place to another
while the AC adapter 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 equip-
ment such as radio transmitters could
interfere with the monitor, damage 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
device in a carrying case or a plastic bag
before exposing it to sudden changes in
temperature.
