iii
To ensure continued enjoyment of your Nikon product, observe the follow-
ing precautions when storing or using the device:
Cautions
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 or lens
cover, or to the connector, card slot, or
battery chamber covers. These parts are
especially susceptible to damage.
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 (available separately) is
connected.
Do not drop
The product may malfunction if subjected
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 con-
densation inside the device. To prevent
condensation, place the device in a carry-
ing case or a plastic bag before exposing
it to sudden changes in temperature.
