Caring for the Product
Sufficiently Charge the Battery When Cold
On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. Do not cool the camera at low
temperatures. A camera whose battery is exhausted at low temperature may not turn on.
Keep the camera in a warm place. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its
charge.
Charging a Camera That Has an Exhausted Battery
Turning on or off a camera that has an exhausted battery may result in reduced built-in
battery life. Charge the camera that has an exhausted battery before use.
Storing the Battery
•
Recharge the camera at least once every six months and completely exhaust it before
returning it to storage.
•
Store the camera in a cool place. The battery should be stored in a dry location. Do not
store the battery in hot or extremely cold locations.
Rechargeable Battery Life and Replacement
A marked drop in the time a fully charged battery retains its charge, when used at room
temperature, indicates that the battery needs to be replaced. For replacement (charges
apply) with a new rechargeable battery, consult your Nikon-authorized service
representative. You cannot replace the rechargeable battery.
