For Your Safety
Observe caution when handling the battery
The battery may leak, overheat, or explode if improperly handled. Observe the
following precautions when handling the battery for use in this product:
• Before replacing the battery, turn the product off. If you are using the Charging AC
Adapter/AC adapter, be sure it is unplugged.
• Use only a EN-EL19 Rechargeable Li-ion Battery (included). Charge the battery by
using a camera that supports battery charging or by using a MH-66 Battery Charger
(available separately). To charge the battery with the camera, use either EH-73P/EH-
73PCH Charging AC Adapter (included) or the Charge by computer function.
• When inserting the battery, do not attempt to insert it upside down or backwards.
• Do not short or disassemble the battery or attempt to remove or break the battery
insulation or casing.
• Do not expose the battery to flame or to excessive heat.
• Do not immerse in or expose to water.
• Put the battery in a plastic bag, etc. in order to insulate it before transporting. Do
not transport or store with metal objects such as necklaces or hairpins.
• The battery is prone to leakage when fully discharged. To avoid damage to the
product, be sure to remove the battery when no charge remains.
• Discontinue use immediately should you notice any change in the battery, such as
discoloration or deformation.
• If liquid from the damaged battery comes in contact with clothing or skin, rinse
immediately with plenty of water.
Observe the following precautions when handling the Charging AC
Adapter
• Keep dry. Failure to observe this precaution could result in fire or electric shock.
• Dust on or near the metal parts of the plug should be removed with a dry cloth.
Continued use could result in fire.
• Do not handle the plug or go near the Charging AC Adapter during lightning
storms. Failure to observe this precaution could result in electric shock.
• Do not damage, modify, forcibly tug or bend the USB cable, place it under heavy
objects, or expose it to heat or flames. Should the insulation be damaged and the
wires become exposed, take it to a Nikon-authorized service representative for
inspection. Failure to observe these precautions could result in fire or electric
shock.
• Do not handle the plug or Charging AC Adapter with wet hands. Failure to observe
this precaution could result in electric shock.
• Do not use with travel converters or adapters designed to convert from one
voltage to another or with DC-to-AC inverters. Failure to observe this precaution
could damage the product or cause overheating or fire.
Use the appropriate power supply (battery, Charging AC adapter, AC
adapter, USB cable)
Using a power supply other than those provided or sold by Nikon could result in
damage or malfunction.
