Inserting Batteries

First Steps

B Replacing Batteries

Turn the camera off and make sure that the power-on lamp and monitor are off before opening the

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

B Additional Precautions Regarding Batteries

• Read and follow the warnings for batteries on pages iii and the section, “Caring for the Camera”

(A 115).

• Do not combine old and new batteries or batteries of different makes or types.

• Batteries with the following defects cannot be used:

B Battery Type

To improve battery performance, select the type of battery currently inserted in the camera in the

setup menu. The default setting is Alkaline. When any other type of battery is used, turn the camera

on and change the setting (A 111).

C Alkaline Batteries

Performance of alkaline batteries may vary greatly depending on the manufacturer. Choose a

reliable brand.

C AC Adapter

The AC Adapter EH-65A (available separately from Nikon) can be used to power the COOLPIX P60

from an electrical outlet. Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC

adapter. Failure to observe this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the camera.

D Auto Power-Off in Shooting Mode (Standby Mode)

The monitor, but not the electronic viewfinder, will dim to reduce the drain on the batteries if no

operations are performed for about five seconds. The monitor will brighten when camera controls

are used. At default settings, the monitor, or electronic viewfinder, will turn off altogether if no

operations are performed for about 30 seconds during shooting and playback. The camera will turn

off automatically if no operations are performed for another three minutes (A 107).
