Maximizing Camera Life and Performance

The Camera

To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the precautions described

below in addition to the warnings in “For Your Safety” (

Aviii-x) when using or storing the

device.

B

Keep Dry

The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity.

B

Do Not Drop

The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration.

B

Handle the Lens and All Moving Parts with Care

Do not apply force to the lens, lens cover, monitor, memory card slot or battery chamber. These parts are easily damaged. Applying force to the lens cover could result in camera malfunction or damage to the lens. Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury caused by broken glass and to prevent the liquid crystal from the display touching the skin or entering the eyes or mouth.

B

Do Not Point the Lens at Strong Light Sources for Extended Periods

Avoid pointing the lens at the sun or other strong light sources for extended periods when using or storing the camera. Intense light may cause deterioration of the CCD image sensor, producing a white blur effect in photographs.

B

Keep Away from Strong Magnetic Fields

Do not use or store this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields. Strong static charge or the magnetic fields produced by equipment such as radio transmitters could interfere with the monitor, damage data stored on the memory card, or affect the product’s internal circuitry.

F 2

B

Avoid Sudden Changes in Temperature

Sudden changes in temperature, such as when entering or leaving a heated building on a cold day, can cause condensation to form inside the device. To prevent condensation, place the device in a carrying case or a plastic bag before exposing it to sudden changes in temperature.

B

Turn the Product Off Before Removing or Disconnecting the Power Source or

Memory Card

Do not remove the battery while the product is on, or while images are being recorded or deleted.

Forcibly cutting power in these circumstances could result in loss of data or in damage to product memory or internal circuitry.

B

Notes About the Monitor

Monitors and electronic viewfinders are constructed with extremely high precision; at least 99.99% of pixels are effective, with no more than 0.01% being missing or defective. Hence while these displays may contain pixels that are always lit (white, red, blue, or green) or always off (black), this is not a malfunction and has no effect on images recorded with the device.

White or colored streaks may be visible when bright subjects are framed in the monitor. This phenomenon, known as “smear,” occurs when extremely bright light strikes the image sensor; it is characteristic of image sensors and does not indicate a malfunction. Smear may also take the form of partial discoloration in the monitor during shooting. It does not appear in images recorded with the camera except in the cases of movies and of images recorded with Multi-shot 16 selected for

Continuous. When shooting in these modes, we recommend that you avoid bright subjects such as the sun, reflected sunlight, and electric lights.

Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting.

The monitor is lit by an LED backlight. Should the monitor begin to dim or flicker, contact your

Nikon-authorized service representative.

F 3

The Battery

Be sure to read and follow the warnings in “For Your Safety” (

Aviii-x) before use.

Check the battery level before using the camera, and replace or charge the battery if necessary. Do not continue charging once the battery is fully charged as this will result in reduced battery performance. Whenever possible, carry a fully charged spare battery when taking images on important occasions.

Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 40°C (104°F).

Charge the battery indoors with an ambient temperature of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F) before use.

When charging the battery inserted into the COOLPIX S3400 using the Charging AC Adapter

EH-70P or a computer, the battery is not charged at battery temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F).

Note that the battery may become hot during use; wait for the battery to cool before charging.

Failure to observe these precautions could damage the battery, impair its performance, or prevent it from charging normally.

On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. Be sure that the battery is fully charged before heading outside to take images in cold weather. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge.

Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning. Should the battery terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry cloth before use.

If the battery will not be used for some time, insert it in the camera and completely exhaust it before removing it for storage. The battery should be stored in a cool location with an ambient temperature of 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). Do not store the battery in hot or extremely cold locations.

Always remove the battery from the camera or optional battery charger when it is not being used.

When inserted, minute amounts of current flow even when unused, and the battery may become excessively drained and no longer function. Turning the camera on or off while the battery is exhausted can result in reduced battery life.

Recharge the battery at least once every six months and completely exhaust it before returning it to storage.

After removing the battery from the camera or optional battery charger, put the battery in the included battery case and store it in a cool place.

A marked drop in the time a fully charged battery retains its charge, when used at room temperature, indicates that the battery needs to be replaced. Purchase a new EN-EL19 battery.

F 4

Replace the battery when it no longer holds a charge. Used batteries are a valuable resource.

Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local regulations.

Charging AC Adapter

Be sure to read and follow the warnings in “For Your Safety” (

Aviii-x) before use.

The Charging AC Adapter EH-70P is for use only with compatible devices. Do not use with another make or model of device.

The EH-70P is compatible with AC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz electrical outlets. When using in other countries, use a plug adapter (available commercially) as necessary. For more information about plug adapters, consult your travel agency.

Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter other than Charging

AC Adapter EH-70P or USB-AC adapter. Failure to observe this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the camera.

Memory Cards

Use only Secure Digital memory cards. See “Approved Memory Cards” (F22) for more

information about memory cards.

Be sure to follow the precautions described in the documentation included with the memory card.

Do not put labels or stickers on memory cards.

The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another device into this camera, be sure to format it with this camera. We recommend formatting new memory cards with this camera before using them with this camera.

Note that formatting permanently deletes all images and other data on the memory card. Be sure to make copies of any images you wish to keep before formatting the memory card.

If the message Card is not formatted. Format card? is displayed when the camera is turned on, the memory card must be formatted. If there is data that you do not want to delete, select No.

Copy the necessary date to a computer, etc. If you want to format the card, select Yes. The confirmation dialog will be displayed. To start formatting, press the k button.

Do not perform the following during formatting, while data is being written to or deleted from the memory card, or during data transfer to a computer. Failure to observe this precaution could result in the loss of data or in damage to the camera or memory card:

- Open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover to remove/insert the battery or memory card.

- Turn off the camera.

- Disconnect the AC adapter.

Do not format the memory card using a computer.

Lens

Monitor

Body

Avoid touching the lens with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with a blower

(typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that is pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To remove fingerprints or other stains that cannot be removed with a blower, wipe the lens with a soft cloth, using a spiral motion that starts at the center of them and working toward the edges. If this fails, clean the lens using a cloth lightly dampened with commercial lens cleaner.

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.

Use a blower to remove dust, dirt or sand, then wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.

After using the camera at the beach or other sandy or dusty environment, wipe off any sand, dust or salt with a dry cloth lightly dampened with fresh water and dry thoroughly. Note that foreign matter inside the camera could cause damage not covered by the warranty.

Storage

Turn the camera off when not in use. Be sure that the power-on lamp is off before putting the camera away. Remove the battery if the camera will not be used for an extended period. Do not store the camera with naphtha or camphor moth balls, or in any of the following locations:

Next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic fields, such as televisions or radios

Exposed to temperatures below –10°C (14°F) or above 50°C (122°F)

Places that are poorly ventilated or subject to humidity of over 60%

To prevent mold or mildew, take the camera out of storage at least once a month. Turn the camera on and release the shutter a few times before putting the camera away again.
