Precautions for Use

• The MB-D80 is for use with compatible devices
only.
• Do not use with batteries and battery holders not
recommended in this manual. The MB-D80 can
not be used with rechargeable EN-EL3a/EN-EL3
Li-ion batteries or the MS-D100 or MS-D70 bat-
tery holders.
• To prevent electrical shorts caused by metal ob-
jects touching the power terminals, replace the
contact cap when the MB-D80 is not in use.
• When the battery holder is removed from the
MB-D80, remove the batteries or place the
holder in a container to prevent electrical shorts
caused by contact with other metal objects.
• Should you notice smoke or an unusual smell
or noise from the battery pack, discontinue use
immediately. After removing the batteries, take
the device to the retailer or a Nikon-authorized
service representative for inspection.
• The MB-D80 is not equipped with a power
switch. Use the camera power switch to turn
the power on or off .
EN-EL3e Batteries
The performance of EN-EL3e batteries drops at
temperatures below about 10 °C (50 °F). Be sure
the battery is fully charged and keep a warm
spare battery on hand ready to exchange as nec-
essary. Cold batteries will recover some of their
charge when warmed.
AA Batteries
Due to their limited capacity, AA LR6 alkaline and
ZR6 nickel- manganese batteries should be used
only when no other alternative is available. Do
not use at low temperatures. In general, AA bat-
teries have less capacity than EN-EL3e batteries
when used in the MB-D80; EN-EL3e batteries are
recommended for best performance.
The capacity of AA batteries varies with make and
storage conditions; in some cases, they may cease
to function before their expiry date. Note that the
capacity of AA batteries drops sharply at tempera-
tures below 20 °C (68 °F).
