Page 28
B Do Not Allow Damp to Enter
Inside the Camera
This camera is provided with JIS/IEC
protection class 8 (IPX8) equivalent
waterproong. If water seeps inside the
camera, however, this could cause the
components to rust and result in a high
repair charge or the camera may not be
repairable.
After using the camera at the beach or
underwater, make sure that the batterychamber/memory card slot cover is
rmly closed, and then immerse the
camera in a shallow container lled
with freshwater for 10 minutes.
After using the camera underwater,
do not leave the camera wet for 60
minutes or more. This could cause
deterioration of the waterproong
performance.
B Prevent Water From Seeping
Inside the Camera
If the inside of the camera becomes
wet, this could result in camera
malfunction and the camera may not
be repairable. To prevent water seeping
(water submersion) accidents, be sure
to observe the following cautions when
using the camera.
• When the battery-chamber/memory
card slot cover is closed, make sure
that the camera strap, hair, lint,
dust, sand grains, other foreign
substances, or dirt are not attached
on the waterproong packing and
portions that make a contact with
the waterproong packing.
• Do not open or close the battery-
chamber/memory card slot cover in
areas exposed to water spray, high
winds, dust or sand.
28
Notices
Page 29
• When an external force is applied
on the camera, it could become
deformed or the airtight seals may
become damaged and cause water
to seep inside the camera. Do not
place a heavy object on the camera,
drop the camera, or apply excessive
force on the camera.
• If water seeps inside the camera,
immediately stop using the camera.
Wipe o moisture from the camera,
and at once take the camera to
your Nikon-authorized service
representative.
B Shock and Vibration
Do not drop the camera, strike it
against a hard object such as a rock, or
throw it at a water surface.
Do not leave the camera in an area
subject to vibration. If the camera is
subjected to excessive shock, this could
result in camera malfunction or damage.
B Maximum Depth
This camera is designed to withstand
water pressure up to a depth of
10m (33 ft) for approx. 60 minutes.
At greater depth, water could seep
inside the camera, resulting in camera
malfunction.
B Avoid Sudden Changes in
Temperature
• Sudden changes in temperature,
such as when entering or leaving a
heated building on a cold day, can
cause condensation to form inside
the device. To prevent condensation,
place the device in a carrying case
or a plastic bag before exposing it to
sudden changes in temperature.
• Do not expose the camera to high
temperatures by leaving it on the
beach or in direct sunlight before
entering the water.
Notices

Page 30
B Keep away from Strong
Magnetic Fields
Do not use or store this device in the
vicinity of equipment that generates
strong electromagnetic radiation or
magnetic elds. Strong static charge
or the magnetic elds produced by
equipment such as radio transmitters
could interfere with the monitor,
damage data saved on the memory
card, or aect the product’s internal
circuitry.
B Do Not Point the Lens at Strong
Light Sources for Extended
Periods
Avoid pointing the lens at the sun or
other strong light sources for extended
periods when using or storing the
camera. Intense light may cause
deterioration of the image sensor,
producing a white blur eect in
photographs.
B Turn the Product o Before
Removing or Disconnecting the
Power Source
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
product memory or internal circuitry.
B Notes About the Monitor
• Monitors and electronic viewnders
are constructed with extremely high
precision; at least 99.99% of pixels are
eective, 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 o (black),
this is not a malfunction and has no
eect on images recorded with the
device.
30
Notices

B About the Manuals
Nikon will not be held liable for any
damages resulting from the use of this
product.
Before Taking Important
Pictures
Before taking pictures on important
occasions (such as at weddings or
before taking the camera on a trip), take
a test shot to ensure that the camera
is functioning normally. Nikon will
not be held liable for damages or lost
prots that may result from product
malfunction.
Disposing of Data Storage
Devices
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 les
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.
Before discarding a data storage device
or transferring ownership to another
person, erase all data using commercial
deletion software, or format the
device and then completely rell it
with images containing no private
information (for example, pictures of
empty sky). Care should be taken to
avoid injury or damage to property
when physically destroying data
storage devices.
