bElectronically Controlled Cameras
In extremely rare instances, unusual characters may appear on the monitor 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,
then turn the camera on again. Note that disconnecting the power source as
described above may result in the loss of any data not recorded on the internal
memory or memory card at the time the problem occurred. Data already recorded
is not affected. In the event of continued malfunction, contact your retailer or
Nikon-authorized service representative.

• Adjust monitor brightness.
• Monitor is dirty. Clean monitor.
• If the camera clock has not been set ("Date not set" indicator
flashes during shooting), still pictures have a time stamp of
"00/00/0000 00:00"; and movies are dated "01/01/12 00:00. " Set
the correct date and time using Time zone and date in the
setup menu.
• The camera clock is not as accurate as a normal clock, such as
watches. Check camera clock regularly against more accurate
timepieces and reset as required.
Hide info is selected for Photo info of Monitor settings in the
setup menu.
Time zone and date has not been set.
• A shooting mode that does not support print date is selected.
• Another function that is set now is restricting the print date.
• The date cannot be imprinted onto a movie.
Clock battery is exhausted; all settings were restored to their
default values.
Battery temperature is high. Turn off camera, and allow battery to
cool down before resuming use. After the lamp flashes for three
minutes, the camera turns off automatically, but you can also
press the power switch to turn it off manually.
When functions such as movie recording or sending images
using an Eye-Fi card are used for a long time, or when the camera
is used in a location with a high ambient temperature, the
camera temperature may rise. This is not a malfunction.
