Camera Care-continued • Remove the batteries and store the camera with a desiccant If you do not intend to use the camera for a long time, remove the batteries to protect the camera from battery leakage. • In a humid environment, store the camera inside a plastic bag with a desiccant to keep out dust, moisture and salt. Note, however, that storing leather cases in vinyl bags may cause the leather to deteriorate. Keep the batteries in a cool, dry place away from heat or humidity. • Change the desiccant occasionally since it eventually loses its ability to absorb moisture effectively. • Leaving the camera unused for a long period of time may cause mold to grow and result in malfunction. Turn the power on and release the shutter a few times once per month. • To maintain the built-in Speedlight in peak condition, fire it a few times every month. This will enable you to use the flash for many years. Notes on Batteries WARNING Do not leave Keep batteries out of the reach of children. If batteries are accidentally swallowed, call a doctor immediately. • Use two CR2 lithium batteries Change the batteries well before the end of their life expectancy and prepare spare batteries before important picture-taking situations. • Turn the camera power off when changing the batteries Turn the camera power off before changing the batteries, and insert the batteries with (1-) and (9- ends positioned correctly. • When changing batteries, make sure to use batteries of the same brand and manufacturer. • Stains on the battery poles may cause poor contact. Wipe the batteries well with a dry cloth before installing. • Use fresh batteries at low temperatures Battery power diminishes at extremely low temperatures, and the camera may not function properly with old batteries. Use a fresh set of batteries at low temperatures, keep spare batteries warm, and use them alternately. • Film advance speed lowers and picture capacity decreases at low temperatures. However, battery power may be restored when the temperature returns to normal. • Do not throw batteries into a fire or short circuit them Do not throw batteries into a fire. Do not short, disassemble, heat or charge batteries. Nikon cannot be held responsible for any malfunction resulting from the use of the camera other than as specified in this manual. 73 72
