WARNING
•Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the camera
yourself, as it houses high-voltage circuitry which can cause an
electric shock. Another reason is that these actions could cause
the camera to malfunction.
•If the camera is dropped and damaged, do not touch any
exposed interior metal parts, as it houses high-voltage circuitry
which can cause an electric shock. Remove the battery and take
the camera to your local Nikon dealer for repair.
•If you detect smoke coming from the camera, stop operation
immediately and turn the camera off. Let the camera cool off
before removing the battery. Then take the camera to your local
Nikon dealer for repair.
•Do not submerge the camera in water or allow water to splash
on it, as this may cause an electric shock or a fire.
•Do not operate the camera in an environment containing a
combustible gas, as this may cause a fire or explosion.
•Do not look at the sun or a strong light source directly through
the viewfinder, as this may damage your retina, resulting in
permanent eye damage.
•Do not let the strap wind around your neck. In particular, never
put the strap around a child’s neck, as this may cause
suffocation.
•Keep batteries out of the reach of children. If a battery is
accidentally swallowed, call a doctor immediately.
•Never use thinner, benzene, or other active agents for cleaning
the camera, as this may damage the camera, cause it to catch
on fire, or harm your health.
