Notice for Customers in Europ-~e~ _
This symbol indicates that this prod-
uct
is to be collected separately.
The following apply only
to users in
European countries:
•This
product is designated for

Precautions for Use
·The MB-D80 is for use with compatible devices
only.
•Do
not use with batteries and batteryholders not
recommended in this manual. The MB-D80 can
not be used with rechargeable E-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 acontainer
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 aNikon-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 awarm
spare
ba tery 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 OF).

The MS-D200 battery holder is inserted in the MB-D80 at shipment. See "Removing the Batteries"for
information
on removing the battery holder.
Parts of the MB-D80 (Figure A) Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of an MB-080
multi-power battery pack for use with Nikon
080/090 single-lens reflex digital cameras.
The MB-080 takes one or
two EN-EL3e re-
chargeable batteries or six AA batteries (alka-
line, Ni-MH, lithium, or nickel-manganese) and
includes

sub-command dials on the MB-080 to prevent unintended use. Before using these controls to
take photographs in vertical (portrait) orientation, select. to release the lock.
The control lock
is not a power switch. Use the camera power switch to turn the camera on and off.
The Shutter-Release Button and Command Dials
The MB-080 is eqUipped with ashutter-release button (Figure A-@), main command dial (Figure
A-@), and sub-command dial (Figure A-@) for use when taking photographs in vertical (portrait)
orientation. These controls perform
the same functions as the corresponding controls on the
camera. See the camera manual for more information.
Changes
to Custom Setting 15 (Command dials) on the 080 or to Custom Setting f5 (Customize
command dials) on the 090 also apply to the command dials on the MB-080. See the camera
manual for details.

The MB-D80 is equipped with an alternate AE-
a UAF-L button for use when taking photographs
in "tall"(portrait) orientation.
D80: The MB-D80 AE-UAF-L button performs the
same functions
as the AE-L/AF-L button on the
camera and
is affected by changes to Custom
Setting
18 (AE-L/AF-L). See the camera Guide
to Digital Photography for details.
D90: The function performed by the MB-D80
AE-UAF-L button can be chosen using Custom

the MB-D80
is not in use. The cap can be threaded onto the camera strap when removed from
the battery pack.
2Open the camera battery-chamber cover and remove it from the base
of the camera handgrip
as shown in Figure B. Remove the battery, if present, and place the camera battery-chamber
cover in the battery-chamber cover holder (Figure
C).
A PB-6D and PK-13 auto-extension ring are required when using PB-6 bellows with the
MB-D80.
3Insert the MB-D80
as shown in Figure D.

To remove the MB-D80, turn the camera off and set the control lock on the MB-D80 to Land then
follow
the above steps in the reverse order.
Be sure to place the camera battery-chamber cover in the battery-chamber cover holder to prevent
loss.

Inserting Batteries
The MB-D80 can be used with one or two EN-EL3e rechargeable Li-ion batteries, or with six AA
batteries inserted
in the MS-D200 battery holder.
Before inserting batteries, be sure that the camera is off and that the MB-D80 control lock is in the L
position.
1Turn
the battery-chamber latch on the back of the MB-D80 to ~ and open the battery-chamber
cover (Figure
F).
21 nsert the batteries.
EN-EL3e: Insert the batteries as shown on the inside of the battery chamber cover. The battery
latch will slide aside
during insertion and pop up to lock the battery in place when fully inserted
(Figure
G). Ifonly one battery is used, it may be inserted into either slot.
AA: Place six AA batteries in the MS-D200 as shown below and slide the holder into the battery
chamber. The
two battery latches (Figure H-(D) will slide aside during insertion (Figure H-@)
and
pop up to lock the battery holder in place when fully inserted.

3Close and latch the battery-chamber cover
(Figure
I). Make sure the cover is fully closed •
before
turning the latch.
4Turn the camera on and check the battery
level in
the control panel or viewfinder. If
EN-EL3e batteries are used, battery level can
also be verified
by means of the Battery info
option in the camera setup menu.
~ U~ini,iln::'~ii\~apter
If the MB-D80 is inserted in the camera, be sure
to remove AA batteries before connecting an AC
adapter. Failure to observe this precaution may
shorten the life
of AA batteries.
Use EN-EL3e batteries if possible. AA batteries
have less capacity and suffer amarked drop in
performance at low temperatures.
When using
AA batteries, note that all six bat-
teries must
be of the same type.
Note that the MB-D80
can also be inserted in
the camera after the battery or battery holder
is inserted.

setup menu displays
information on
EN-EL3e
batteries. See the cam-
era manual for details.
Battery information
is listed separately for each
slot. The

tion for
AA batteries, while the D90 displays the
battery level only.
Remove the batteries
when the MB-080 is not in
use.
To ensure that the camera
shows the correct battery
level
when AA batteries
are used, choose the ap-
propriate
option for Cus-
tom Setting 32 (MB-D80
