First Steps
The MH-62 Battery Charger
Before using the MH-62, read and follow the warnings and notices on pages ii to vi
of this manual.
The MH-62 is for use with EN-EL8 batteries. Do not use with incompatible batteries. The sup-
plied power cable is intended solely for use with the MH-62 and is for domestic use only. It
may be necessary to purchase another cable for use abroad; consult with a local Nikon-au-
thorized retailer or service representative.
EN-EL8 Batteries
Before using the EN-EL8, read and follow the warnings and notices on pages ii–vi
and 154 of this manual.
Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F) or above 40 °C (104 °F).
During charging, the temperature should be in the vicinity of 5 to 35 °C (41 to 95 °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.
When the Battery Is Not in Use
When the battery is not in use, remove it from the camera or battery charger and replace the
terminal cover. The camera and battery charger draw minute amounts of current even when
off; if left in place, the battery could be drained to the point that it no longer functions.
