Image Sensor Cleaning
The camera’s image sensor is fitted with a low-pass filter to prevent
moiré. Each time it is turned on or off, the camera vibrates the low-pass
filter to remove dust (note that operating camera controls before clean-
ing is complete interrupts this process, and that image sensor cleaning
may be temporarily disabled if the camera is turned on and off several
times in succession). Dust not removed by this method may appear in
images recorded with the camera, in which case you should have the
filter cleaned by Nikon-authorized service personnel.

Servicing the Camera and Accessories
The camera is a precision device and requires regular servicing. Nikon
recommends that the camera be inspected by the original retailer or
Nikon-authorized service representative once every one to two years,
and that it be serviced once every three to five years (note that fees
apply to these services). Frequent inspection and servicing are particu-
larly recommended if the camera is used professionally. Any accesso-
ries regularly used with the camera, such as lenses or optional flash
units, should be included when the camera is inspected or serviced.
