Nikon Camera F3AF - Manual (Page 121)

ABOUT THE LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD)
1) At high temperatures (over approx. 60°C), the whole surface
turns black so that the exposure information cannot be read.
However, this situation will return to normal when the temper­
ature drops.
2) Avoid storing the camera in excessively hot places, such as
in a car parked in direct sunlight or inside the trunk. You may
shorter! the LCD's life by doing so.
3) When the temperature goes below freezing, the response
time decreases as the liquid crystal becomes more viscose.
4) Although the Nikon F3AF employs the highest quality LCD, it
deteriorates in contrast and becomes difficult to see after six
or seven years. When this happens, please contact your
dealer or the Nikon service facility nearest you for replace­
ment of this element at a small charge.
