Disposing of Data Storage Devices Introduction Please note that deleting images or formatting data storage devices such as memory cards or built-in camera memory does not completely erase the original image data. Deleted files can sometimes be recovered from discarded storage devices using commercially available software, potentially resulting in the malicious use of personal image data. Ensuring the privacy of such data is the user’s responsibility.
For Your Safety Introduction To prevent damage to your Nikon product or injury to yourself or to others, read the following safety precautions in their entirety before using this equipment. Keep these safety instructions where all those who use the product will read them.
Do not remain in contact with the camera, charging AC adapter, or AC adapter for extended periods while the devices are on or in use Parts of the devices become hot. Leaving the devices in direct contact with the skin for extended periods may result in low-temperature burns. 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.
Introduction • 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.
Shockproof, Waterproof, Dustproof, Condensation Notes About Shockproof Performance This camera has passed Nikon’s in-house test (drop test from a height of 210 cm (7 ft) on a 5 cm (2 in.) thick plywood panel) compliant with MIL-STD 810F Method 516.5-Shock*. This test does not guarantee the waterproof performance of the camera or that the camera will be free from damage or trouble under all conditions.
Introduction x If the camera is subjected to excessive shock, vibration or pressure caused by dropping it, hitting it, or placing a heavy object on it, the waterproof performance is not guaranteed. • If the camera is exposed to shocks, it is recommended to consult your retailer or Nikon-authorized service representative to confirm the waterproof performance (charged service). - Do not drop the camera, strike it against a hard object such as a rock, or throw it against a water surface.
Introduction • If a foreign substance adheres to the outside of the camera or inside of the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover (in locations such as yellow waterproof packing, hinges, memory card slot, or terminals), immediately remove it with a blower. If a foreign substance adheres to the waterproof packing inside of the battery-chamber/ memory card slot cover, remove it with the included brush. Do not use the included brush for anything other than cleaning the waterproof packing.
Notes About Using the Camera Underwater Introduction Observe the following precautions to prevent water from seeping inside the camera. • Do not dive into water deeper than 30 m (100 ft) with the camera. • Do not continuously use the camera underwater for 60 minutes or more. • Use the camera in the water temperature range from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) when using it underwater. • Do not use the camera at hot springs. • Do not open or close the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover underwater.
Introduction 1. Keep the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover closed and wash off the camera with fresh water. Immerse the camera in a shallow basin filled with fresh water (such as tap water and well-water that do not contain salt) for 10 minutes. • If the buttons or switches do not operate properly, foreign substances may have adhered. Since this could cause a malfunction, immerse the camera in fresh water and shake it sufficiently in the water to remove the any foreign substances from the camera.
Notes About Operating Temperature and Humidity and Condensation Introduction The operation of this camera has been tested at temperatures from −10°C to +40°C (14°F to 104°F). When you use the camera in cold climate regions or at high altitudes, observe the following precautions. • The performance of the batteries (number of images shot and shooting time) will drop temporarily. Keep the camera and batteries warm inside a cold-resistant container or under your clothing before use.

Caring for the Product Observe the precautions described below in addition to the warnings in “For Your Safety” (Avi–viii) and “ Shockproof, Waterproof, Dustproof, Condensation” (Aix) when using or storing the device. The Camera Do Not Apply Strong Impact to the Camera The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration. In addition, do not touch or apply force to the lens.
Notes About 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.
Carrying Spare Batteries Whenever possible, carry fully charged spare batteries when taking pictures on important occasions. Using the Battery When Cold On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. If an exhausted battery is used at a low temperature, the camera may not turn on. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge.
