Technical notes
Caring for the product
may be damaged even when the lens is pointed toward the sun for a few seconds,
particularly when the lens is in a telephoto position.
The camera may not be able to perform exposure control when the internal parts of
the lens are deformed.
Unevenness may appear in images when discoloration or burn-in occurs on the
image sensor.
It is recommended that you attach the lens cap when you are not using the camera.
● Lasers and other bright light sources
Do not direct lasers or other extremely bright light sources toward the lens, as this
could damage the camera’s image sensor.
● Turn the product off before removing or disconnecting the power source
or memory card
Do not remove the battery while the product is on, or while images are being saved
or deleted. Forcibly cutting power in these circumstances could result in loss of data
or in damage to the memory card or internal circuitry.
● Notes about the monitor
• Monitors (including 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.
• Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.
• Do not apply pressure to the monitor, as this could cause damage or malfunction.
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.
The battery
● Precautions for use
• Note that the battery may become hot after use.
• Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 40°C
(104°F) as this could cause damage or malfunction.
• If you notice any abnormalities such as excessive heat, smoke, or an unusual smell
coming from the battery, immediately discontinue use and consult your retailer or
Nikon-authorized service representative.
• After removing the battery from the camera or optional battery charger, put the
battery in a plastic bag, etc. in order to insulate it.
