The Camera
To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the precautions
described below in addition to the warnings in “For Your Safety” (Avii-ix)
when using or storing the device.
B Do Not Drop
The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration.
B Handle the Lens and All Moving Parts with Care
Do not apply force to the lens, lens cover, monitor, memory card slot, or battery
chamber. These parts are easily damaged. Applying force to the lens cover could
result in camera malfunction or damage to the lens. Should the monitor break, care
should be taken to avoid injury caused by broken glass and to prevent the liquid
crystal from the display touching the skin or entering the eyes or mouth.
B Keep Dry
The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity.
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.
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 cause deterioration of the
image sensor, producing a white blur effect in photographs.
