Charging the Battery
Read and follow the warnings and cautions on pages x–xiii and 321–325
of this manual. Charge the battery indoors at ambient temperatures of
5 °C–35 °C (41 °F–95 °F). Do not use the battery at ambient
temperatures below 0 °C/32 °F or above 40 °C/104 °F; failure to observe
this precaution could damage the battery or impair its performance.
Capacity may be reduced and charging times may increase at battery
temperatures from 0 °C/32 °F to 15 °C/59 °F and from 45 °C/113 °F to
60 °C/140 °F. The battery will not charge if its temperature is below 0 °C
(32 °F) or above 60 °C (140 °F). If the CHARGE lamp flashes quickly (about
eight times a second) during charging, confirm that the temperature is
in the correct range and then unplug the charger and remove and
reinsert the battery. If the problem persists, cease use immediately
and take battery and charger to your retailer or a Nikon-authorized
service representative.
Use the charger with compatible batteries only. Unplug when not in
use.
