Technical Notes
The Battery
Precautions for Use
• Note that the battery may become hot after use.
• Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below -10°C (-14°F) or above 40°C (104°F) 
as this could cause damage or malfunction.
• If you notice any abnormalities such as excessive heat, smoke, or an unusual smell coming 
from the battery, immediately discontinue use and consult your retailer or Nikon-
authorized service representative.
• After removing the battery from the camera or optional battery charger, put the battery in 
a plastic bag, etc. in order to insulate it.
Charging the Battery
Check the battery level before using the camera and replace or charge the battery if 
necessary. 
• Charge the battery indoors with an ambient temperature of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F) 
before use.
• A high battery temperature may prevent the battery from charging properly or 
completely, and may reduce battery performance. Note that the battery may become hot 
after use; wait for the battery to cool before charging. 
When charging the battery inserted into this camera using the Charging AC Adapter or a 
computer, the battery is not charged at battery temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 
45°C (113°F).
• Do not continue charging once the battery is fully charged as this will result in reduced 
battery performance. 
• The battery temperature may increase during charging. However, this is not a 
malfunction.
Carrying Spare Batteries
Whenever possible, carry fully charged spare batteries when taking pictures on important 
occasions.
Using the Battery When Cold
On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. If an exhausted battery is used at a 
low temperature, the camera may not turn on. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and 
exchange as necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge.
Battery Terminals
Dirt on the battery terminals may prevent the camera from functioning. Should the battery 
terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry cloth before use.
