Introduction
Notes About Operating Temperature, Humidity, and
Condensation
The operation of this camera has been tested at temperatures from –10°C to +40°C
(14°F to 104°F).
When you use the camera in cold climate regions or at high altitudes, observe the
following precautions.
• Battery performance deteriorates temporarily when cold. Keep the camera warm
under your clothing before use.
• Camera performance may deteriorate temporarily if it is exposed to extreme cold
for an extended period. For example, the monitor may appear darker than normal
immediately after the camera is turned on, or residual images may be produced.
● Environmental conditions that are likely to cause condensation inside of
the camera
Fogging (condensation) may occur on the inside of the monitor or lenses when there
are sharp temperature changes or high humidity, such as in the environmental
conditions described below. This is not a camera malfunction or defect.
• The camera is suddenly immersed in cold water after being in a hot place on land.
• The camera is brought to a warm place such as inside a building after being in the
cold outdoors.
• The memory card slot/connector cover is opened or closed in a high-humidity
environment.
● Clearing the fogging
• Turn off the camera and open the memory card slot/connector cover while in a
place where the ambient temperature is stable (avoid places with high
temperature, high humidity, sand, or dust).
To clear the fogging, remove the memory card, and leave the memory card slot/
connector cover open to allow the camera to adjust to the ambient temperature.
Inspection and Repair
• If the camera is exposed to shock, it is recommended to consult your retailer or
Nikon-authorized service representative to confirm the waterproof performance
(charged service).
• If the waterproofing packing begins to deteriorate, consult your retailer or Nikon-
authorized service representative. The waterproof performance of the
waterproofing packing may start to deteriorate after one year.
• If water seeps inside the camera, immediately stop using it and take it to your
Nikon-authorized service representative.
