Troubleshooting

If the camera fails to function as expected, check the list of common problems
below before consulting your retailer or Nikon representative. Refer to the
page numbers listed in the right-most column for information on solving the
problems listed here.
Electronically-Controlled Cameras
In extremely rare instances, unusual characters may appear in the display and
the camera may stop functioning. In most cases, this phenomenon is caused
by a strong external static charge. Turn the camera off, remove and replace
the battery, and turn the camera on again, or, if you are using an AC adapter
(available separately), disconnect and reconnect the adapter, and turn the
camera on again. In the event of continued malfunction, contact your retailer
or Nikon representative. Note that disconnecting the power source as de-
scribed above may result in the loss of any data not recorded to the memory
card at the time the problem occurred. Data already recorded to the memory
card will not be affected.
