❚❚ Manual Cleaning
If foreign matter can not be removed from the image sensor
using the Clean image sensor (
0 338) option in the setup
menu, the sensor can be cleaned manually as described below.
Note, however, that the sensor is extremely delicate and easily
damaged. Nikon recommends that the sensor be cleaned only
by Nikon-authorized service personnel.

cleaning the image sensor. Turn the camera off and insert a

power connector. The Lock mirror up for cleaning option is
only available in the setup menu at battery levels over
