D During Charging
Do not move the charger or touch the battery during charging. Failure to observe this
precaution could in very rare instances result in the charger showing that charging is
complete when the battery is only partially charged. Remove and reinsert the battery to
begin charging again.
D Charging the Battery
Read and follow the warnings and cautions on pages iv–v and 79–81 of this manual. Charge the
battery indoors at ambient temperatures of 5 °C–35 °C (41°F–95 °F). Do not use the battery
at ambient temperatures below 0 °C/32 °F or above 40 °C/104 °F; failure to observe this
precaution could damage the battery or impair its performance. Capacity may be reduced
and charging times may increase at battery temperatures from 0 °C/32 °F to 15 °C/59 °F and
from 45 °C/113 °F to 60 °C/140 °F. The battery will not charge if its temperature is below 0 °C
(32 °F) or above 60 °C (140 °F). If the CHARGE lamp flashes quickly (about eight times a second)
during charging, confirm that the temperature is in the correct range and then unplug the
charger and remove and reinsert the battery. If the problem persists, cease use immediately
and take battery and charger to your retailer or a Nikon-authorized service representative.
Do not attempt to charge a fully-charged battery. Failure to observe this precaution will
result in reduced battery performance.
Use the charger with compatible batteries only. Unplug when not in use.
A Removing the Battery
To remove the battery, turn the camera off and open the
battery-chamber cover. Press the battery latch in the
direction shown by the arrow to release the battery and then
remove the battery by hand.
A Formatting Memory Cards
If this is the first time the memory card will be used in the
camera or if the card has been formatted in another device,
select Format memory card in the setup menu and follow
the on-screen instructions to format the card (0 66). Note
that this permanently deletes any data the card may contain.
Be sure to copy any photographs and other data you wish to
keep to a computer before proceeding.
