Servicing
the
Camera
and
Accessories
The
040
is
a precision device and requires regular servicing. Nikon recommends that the camera be
inspected by
the
original retailer or Nikon service representative once
everyone
to
two
years,
and that
it be serviced once every three
to
five
years
(note
that
fees
apply
to
these services). Frequent inspec-
tion and servicing
are
particularly recommended
if
the camera
is
used professionally. Any accessories
regularly used with the camera, such
as
lenses or optional Speedlights, should be included when the
camera
is
inspected or serviced.
