Caring for Your Camera

Cleaning
Lens
One key to cleaning the lens is to not touch it with your fingers. Remove dust or
lint with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end
that you pump to produce a stream of air out the other). To remove fingerprints
or other stains that can not be removed with a blower, wipe the lens with a soft
cloth, using a spiral motion that starts in the center of the lens and works out to
the edges.
Monitor
Remove dust or lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints and other stains, clean
the monitor with a soft, dry cloth, being careful not to apply pressure.
Avoid contact with liquid crystal
Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury due to broken
glass and to prevent the liquid crystal from the monitor touching the skin or en-
tering the eyes or mouth.
Body
Use a blower to remove dust and lint, then wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.
After using the camera at the beach or seaside, wipe off any sand or salt with a
cloth lightly dampened with fresh water, then dry thoroughly.
Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.
Notes on the Monitor
• The monitor may contain a few pixels that are always lit or that do not light. This is a char-
acteristic common to all TFT LCD monitors, and does not indicate a malfunction. Images
recorded using the product will not be affected.
• When you frame bright subjects, vertical comet-like streaks that whiten toward either end
may appear in the monitor. This phenomenon, known as "smear," does not appear in the
final photograph and does not indicate a malfunction. Some smear may appear in movies.
• Images in the monitor may be difficult to see in a bright light.
• The monitor is lit by an LED backlit. Should the monitor begin to dim or flicker, contact
your Nikon service representative.
