Caring for the Products The Camera To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the following precautions when using or storing the device. Be sure to read and follow the warnings of “For Your Safety” (Avi to Aviii) thoroughly before using the products. B Keep Dry The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity. B Do Not Drop The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration.
Caring for the Products B Notes on the Monitor • Monitors and electronic viewfinders are constructed with extremely high precision; at least 99.99% of pixels are effective, with no more than 0.01% being missing or defective. Hence while these displays may contain pixels that are always lit (white, red, blue, or green) or always off (black), this is not a malfunction and has no effect on images recorded with the device. • Images on the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.
Caring for the Products • If the battery will not be used for some time, insert it in the camera and run it flat before removing it for storage. The battery should be stored in a cool location with an ambient temperature of 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). Do not store the battery in hot or extremely cold locations. • Always remove the battery from the camera or battery charger when it is not being used. When inserted, minute amounts of current are drawn from the battery even when not in use.
Caring for the Products The Memory Cards Technical Notes and Index • Use only Secure Digital memory cards. See “Approved Memory Cards” (A21). • Be sure to observe the precautions in the memory card documentation when you use the memory card. • Do not affix labels or stickers to the memory card. • Do not format the memory card using a computer. • When a memory card that has been used in another device is used for the first time, be sure to format it with this camera.
Caring for the Camera Cleaning Lens Avoid touching glass parts with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that is pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To remove fingerprints, oily substances, or other stains that cannot be removed with a blower, carefully wipe the lens with a dry soft cloth or eyewear cleaning cloth, using a spiral motion that starts at the center of the lens and working toward the edges.
