For Your Safety

<Important> Notes About Shockproof, Waterproof, and Dustproof Performance and Condensation

• The shockproof, waterproof, and dustproof performance described here do not guarantee that the camera will remain completely waterproof or free from damage and trouble under all conditions.

• Do not subject the camera to excessive shock, vibration or pressure by dropping it, hitting it, or placing a heavy object on it. Failure to observe this precaution could deform the camera, cause water to seep inside, or damage the airtight seals, resulting in camera malfunction.

• Your Nikon warranty may not cover troubles caused by water seeping inside the camera due to improper handling of the camera.

Notes About Shockproof Performance

This camera has passed Nikon’s in-house test (drop test from a height of 180 cm (5 ft 10 in.) on a 5 cm (2 in.) thick plywood panel) compliant with the MIL-STD 810F Method 516.5-Shock* standard. Changes in appearance, such as paint peeling off and deformation of the camera, are not measured in Nikon’s in-house test.

* U.S. Department of Defense test method standard.

This drop test drops 5 cameras in 26 directions (8 edges, 12 corners, and 6 faces) from a height of 122 cm (4 ft) to make sure that one to five cameras pass the test (if any defect is detected during the test, another five cameras are tested to make sure that the test criteria are satisfied for one to five cameras).

Notes About Waterproof and Dustproof Performance

The camera is rated equivalent to JIS/IEC waterproof class 8 (IPX8) and JIS/IEC dustproof class 6 (IP6X) and can shoot images underwater at a depth of 10 m (33 ft) for up to 60 minutes.*

* This rating indicates that the camera has been designed to withstand the specified water

pressure for the specified period of time when the camera is used according to the methods defined by Nikon.

- The waterproof performance of this camera was tested in fresh water (swimming pools, rivers, and lakes) and salt water only.

- The inner portion of this camera is not waterproof. Water seeping inside the camera could cause the components to rust, resulting in high repair costs or irreparable damage.

B Precautions When Cleaning

• Do not puncture the microphone or speaker openings with a sharp implement. If the inside of the camera is damaged, the waterproof performance will deteriorate.

• Do not use soap, neutral detergents, or chemicals such as benzene for cleaning.

Waterproof packing

Performance

• Do not drop the camera, strike it against a hard object such as a rock, or throw it

against a water surface.

• Do not subject the camera to shock when using it underwater.

- Do not subject the camera to water pressure by exposing it to rapids or waterfalls.

- Do not expose to depths greater than 10 m (33 ft) underwater.

- Make sure not to drop the camera underwater. This camera does not float in water.

• Do not continuously use the camera underwater for 60 minutes or more.

• Do not insert a wet memory card or battery in the camera.

- Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover when the camera or your hands are wet. Doing so may cause water to seep inside the camera or result in camera malfunction.

• Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover underwater.

• If moisture such as water droplets adheres to

the outside of the camera or inside of the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover, immediately wipe it off with a soft dry cloth.

- If a foreign substance adheres to the outside of the camera or inside of the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover, immediately remove it with a blower or a soft cloth.

- If a foreign substance adheres to the waterproof packing inside the batterychamber/memory card slot cover, remove it with the included brush. Do not use the included brush for anything other than cleaning the waterproof packing.

• Do not leave the camera in cold conditions or in hot conditions of 40°C (104°F) or more for a long period of time.

- Doing so could cause deterioration of the

waterproof performance.

- When using the camera underwater, make sure the water temperature is from

0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).

• Do not use the camera at hot springs.

Introduction

<Important> Notes About Shockproof, Waterproof, and Dustproof Performance and Condensation

Before Using the Camera Underwater

Check the items below before using the camera underwater.

• Make sure that there are no foreign substances inside the battery-chamber/ memory card slot cover.

• Make sure that the waterproof packing of the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is not cracked or deformed.

- Make sure that the waterproof packing is not detached from the camera.

• Make sure that the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is firmly closed.

- Make sure that the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover security lock is in

the LOCK position.

Notes About Operating Temperature, Humidity, and Condensation

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.

• Battery performance deteriorates temporarily when cold. Keep the camera and batteries warm under your clothing before use.

• Camera performance may deteriorate temporarily if it is exposed to extreme cold for an extended period. For example, the monitor may appear darker than normal immediately after the camera is turned on, or residual images may be produced.

● Environmental conditions that are likely to cause condensation inside of the camera

Fogging (condensation) may occur on the inside of the monitor or lens when there are sharp temperature changes or high humidity, such as in the environmental conditions described below. This is not a camera malfunction or defect.

• The camera is suddenly immersed in cold water after being in a hot place on land.

• The camera is brought to a warm place such as inside a building after being in the

cold outdoors.

• The battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is opened or closed in a highhumidity environment.

● Clearing the fogging

• Turn off the camera and open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover while in a place where the ambient temperature is stable (avoid places with high temperature, high humidity, sand, or dust). To clear the fogging, remove the battery and memory card, and leave the batterychamber/memory card slot cover open to allow the camera to adjust to the ambient temperature.

Introduction

<Important> Notes About Shockproof, Waterproof, and Dustproof Performance and Condensation

Inspection and Repair

• If the camera is exposed to shock, it is recommended to consult your retailer or Nikon-authorized service representative to confirm the waterproof performance (charged service).

• If the waterproof packing begins to deteriorate, consult your retailer or Nikonauthorized service representative. The waterproof performance of the waterproof packing may start to deteriorate after one year.

• If water seeps inside the camera, immediately stop using it and take it to your Nikon-authorized service representative.
