Caring for the Product
The Camera
To ensure safe and continued enjoyment of your Nikon camera, observe the following 
precautions and the precautions noted in “For Your Safety” (
A xv-xxi) when using or storing your 
camera.
B
Do Not Subject the Product to Strong Shocks
The product may malfunction if dropped or struck. Additionally, do not touch or apply force to the 
lens.
B
Do Not Allow Damp to Enter Inside the Camera
COOLPIX S31 is provided with JIS/IEC protection class 8 (IPX8) equivalent waterproofing. If water 
seeps inside the camera, however, this could cause the components to rust and result in a high 
repair charge or the camera may not be repairable.
After using the camera at the beach or underwater, make sure that the battery-chamber/memory 
card slot cover is firmly closed, and then immerse the camera in a shallow container filled with 
freshwater for 10 minutes.
After using the camera underwater, do not leave the camera wet for 60 minutes or more. This could 
cause deterioration of the waterproofing performance.
B
Prevent Water From Seeping Inside the Camera
If the inside of the camera becomes wet, this could result in camera malfunction and the camera 
may not be repairable. To prevent water seeping (water submersion) accidents, be sure to observe 
the following cautions when using the camera.
• When the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is closed, make sure that the camera strap, 
hair, lint, dust, sand grains, other foreign substances, or dirt are not attached on the waterproofing 
packing and portions that make a contact with the waterproofing packing.
• Do not open or close the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover in areas exposed to water 
spray, high winds, dust or sand.
