Troubleshooting

If the camera fails to function as expected, check this list of com-
mon problems before consulting your retailer or Nikon repre-
sentative.

Battery/Display

The camera is on but does not respond: Wait for recording or any other process-
ing to end. If the problem persists, turn the camera off. If the camera still
does not respond, remove and replace the battery or disconnect and
reconnect the AC adapter, but note that this will delete any data not yet
saved. Data already saved to the memory card are unaffected.
The display is off:
• The camera is off (0 22) or the battery is exhausted (0 4, 18).
• The display has turned off automatically to save power (0 22). The dis-
play can be reactivated by pressing the shutter-release button.
• The camera is connected to a computer (0 105) or television.
The camera turns off without warning:
• The battery is low (0 4, 18).
• The display has turned off automatically to save power (0 22). The dis-
play can be reactivated by pressing the shutter-release button.
• The camera's internal temperature is high (0 xiii, 120). Wait for the
camera to cool before turning it on again.
