WARNINGS
Turn off immediately in the
event of malfunction
Should you notice smoke or an unusual smell coming from the
equipment or from the AC adapter
(supplied), unplug the AC adapter
or remove the battery immediately,
taking care to avoid burns. Continued operation could result in injury.
After removing the battery, take
the equipment to a Nikon-authorized service center for inspection.
Do not use in the presence of
flammable gas
Do not use electronic equipment in
the presence of flammable gas, as
this could result in explosion or
fire.
Observe caution when using
the camera strap
Never place the strap around the
neck of an infant or child.
Do not disassemble
Touching the product’s internal
parts could result in injury. In the
event of a malfunction, the product should be repaired only by a
qualified technician. Should the
product break open as the result of
a fall or other accident, remove the
battery or AC adapter and then
take the product to a Nikon-authorized service center for inspection.
Observe proper precautions
when handling batteries
Batteries may leak or explode if improperly handled. Observe the following precautions when handling
batteries for use in this product:
• Be sure the product is off before replacing the battery. If you are using
an AC adapter, be sure it is unplugged.
• Use only a rechargeable Nikon ENEL2 lithium-ion battery (supplied).
• When inserting the battery, do not
attempt to insert it upside down or
backwards.
3
For Your Safety
• Do not short or disassemble the
battery.
• Do not expose the battery to flame
or to excessive heat.
• Do not immerse in or expose to
water.
• Do not transport or store with metal objects such as necklaces or hairpins.
• Batteries are prone to leakage
when fully discharged. To avoid
damage to the product, be sure to
remove the battery when no
charge remains.
• When the battery is not in use, attach the terminal cover and store
in a cool place.
• Immediately after use, or when the
product is used on battery power
for an extended period, the battery
may become hot. Before removing
the battery, turn the camera off
and allow the battery to cool.
• Discontinue use immediately should
you notice any changes in the battery, such as discoloration or deformation.
Use appropriate cables
When connecting cables to the input and output jacks, use only the
cables provided or sold by Nikon
for the purpose, to maintain compliance with product regulations.
Keep out of reach of children
Particular care should be taken to
prevent infants from putting the
battery or other small parts into
their mouths.
Removing memory cards
Memory cards may become hot
during use. Observe due caution
when removing memory cards
from the camera.
CD-ROMs
The CD-ROMs on which the software and manuals are distributed
should not be played back on audio CD equipment. Playing CDROMs on an audio CD player could
cause hearing loss or damage the
equipment.
Observe caution when operating the flash
Using the flash close to your subject’s eyes could cause temporary
visual impairment. Particular care
should be observed if photographing infants, when the flash should
be no less than one meter (39")
from the subject.
Avoid contact with liquid crystal
Should the monitor break, care
should be taken to avoid injury due
to broken glass and to prevent liquid crystal from the monitor touching the skin or entering the eyes or
mouth.
