• When an external force is applied on the camera, it could become deformed or the airtight seals
may become damaged and cause water to seep inside the camera. Do not place a heavy object
on the camera, drop the camera, or apply excessive force on the camera.
• If water seeps inside the camera, immediately stop using the camera. Wipe off moisture from the
camera, and at once take the camera to your Nikon-authorized service representative.
B
Shock and Vibration
Do not drop the camera, strike it against a hard object such as a rock, or throw it at a water surface.
Do not leave the camera in an area subject to vibration. If the camera is subjected to excessive shock,
this could result in camera malfunction or damage.
B
Maximum Depth
COOLPIX S30 is designed to withstand water pressure up to a depth of 3 m (9.8 ft) for approximately
60 minutes. At greater depth, water could seep inside the camera, resulting in camera malfunction.
B
Avoid Sudden Changes in Temperature
• Sudden changes in temperature, such as when entering or leaving a heated building on a cold
day, can cause condensation to form 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.
• Do not expose the camera to high temperatures by leaving it on the beach or in direct sunlight
before entering the water.
B
Keep away from Strong Magnetic Fields
Do not use or store this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong electromagnetic
radiation or magnetic fields. Strong static charge or the magnetic fields produced by equipment
such as radio transmitters could interfere with the monitor, damage data saved on the memory card,
or affect the product’s internal circuitry.
B
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 camera. Intense light may damage the image sensor or other components, producing a
white blur effect in photographs.
